That sounds delicious like Chai tea which I had at a fair. The Chai tea is a favorite in India.

Instead of using only two spices, all of these can be added:

ground ginger
ground cinnamon
ground cloves
ground cardamom

It's 46 degrees here today, and I'm making this drink to keep me warm.

That sounds so good to drink NOW! It's so (strange for Georgia this time of year) cold now it would be a nice warm up drink!
