    KUCHIPUDI WONDER

    Posted by Bill Borodenko on Mar 22, 2024

    In several languages chai means tea and my first experience of tea abroad was jam in boiling hot water. I've come a long way since then.........This KUCHIPUDI MASALA CHAI TEA has wonderful exotic spices with a super hit of black pepper. A wonderful drink after a curry for sure. I have tried it with milk & hot boiled milk . Yes it is pudish. I'm sure some would go with condensed milk on this one.
