Love your milk tea? Me too! I love my tea and I also love to experiment with my evening tea. This mint milk tea AKA pudina chai is my favorite after a heavy meal to help with heartburn and bloating.

Mint milk tea, mint chai

Mint milk tea or Pudina chai recipe is not just tasty and refreshing but it has herbal benefits too. The taste of this tea is slightly tangy. As the mint flavors and intensity are different in different regions adjust mint measure if required. Use organic mint for best results.

Benefits

This tea is very helpful in reducing bloating and also helps indigestion. It also helps get you fresher breath, better digestion and reduced pain from headaches. When paired with little ginger root, the benefits even increase reducing fatigue and improving focus.

We love making other chai too like karak chai and ginger milk tea.

How to make it?

Making mint tea or pudina chai is super simple and the same as making regular chai tea with just 1 extra step.

boil mint leaves,

We begin by boiling mint with water in fairly large vesssel that allow bubbling of tea without spilling. I can take 10 mint leaves.

Allow water to boil for 5 minutes until color visibly changes to greenish tinge.

add tea powder

Now add black tea powder. You may add tea bags. The water will rise as you add tea so reduce heat before adding tea powder.

add milk

Let the tea boil for 1 minute until it loose the raw flavor and water color darkens. Then add milk.

add sugar

Let the tea bubble for few minutes and stay close. Adjust heat so tea continues to bubble without rising to the top and flowing over the brim. Finally, add sugar to taste and mix with spoon. Place a small strainer over the serving tea cup and strain the tea to remove tea powder. Serve hot.

My other tea recipes are

  • Ginger Milk Tea
  • Ginger Turmeric Tea
  • Orange Tea
  • Chocolate Tea

      Hi Parshva, its your tea, you can add anything you like. I'd add ginger and cardamom if I'm looking for a spiced tea with mint.

    Can this be done in bubble tea style by chance with non dairy and only mint tea bags? Bile acid reflux post gallbladder and every little thing even rooibos on occasion sets it off. Gastritis is commonly the norm and i used to be a tea aficionado before i lost that organ. Sigh...would like to see if a bubble tea or milk blend hot tea non dairy with mind really being my only non flare food, if that can revive the need for tea in my life. Thanks, if anyone knows!

      Hi Kara, sorry to hear about your situation. But, CHEERs! You definitely give it a try girl. Anything can taste good in a chilled bubble tea. I can’t tell you anything about the medical side but taste wise it should be good.

      Lastly, if anything goes wrong, I’d just dump some cocoa powder and call it my “After Eight” bubble tea. 😂
