Hathi tea masala is a mixture of highly fragrant spices. It’s specially designed to turn your everyday tea into a proper masala chai. Most market-available chai masala is ground with traditional machines, so the smell evaporates. Hathi masala uses cryogenic grinding at –150°C to preserve the oils and aromas of each spice. Just 1 small spoon in your regular cup is enough to enhance the smell and taste of your masala chai. Available in 100g and 500g packs.

How to Make Masala Chai at Home

Making a cup completely from scratch fills the kitchen with that beautiful chai aroma. Here's how to make a perfect cup of masala tea the traditional way at home.

What you'll need:

  • 2 cups water
  • 1 cup milk (adjust to taste)
  • 2 tsp tea leaves 
  • 1 tsp hathi tea masala
  • Jaggery, sugar, or honey - to taste

Method:

  1. Boil the water in a saucepan, then add the hathi tea masala.
  2. Let this simmer for about 2-3 minutes so the masala gets enough time to release its flavor into the water.
  3. Add the tea leaves or chai patti, and let it simmer for another 2-3 minutes until the color deepens.
  4. Add milk according to your preference and boil everything for a couple of minutes.
  5. Add sugar, jaggery, or honey to sweeten the tea, then strain into cups.
  6. Serve this tea hot and enjoy the warmth of a homemade masala chai with snacks.

Benefits of Hathi Tea Masala

  • Warms the body: A blend of ginger, black pepper, cinnamon, and cardamom. These spices add a natural warmth, making the masala chai feel so comforting.
  • Helps with digestion: Ginger and black pepper have been used in Indian households for ages to support digestion after heavy meals. 
  • Relaxing: The strong fragrance of spices like cardamom and cloves has a calming effect. This is why a cup of masala tea feels relaxing after a long, exhausting day.
  • Boosts Immunity: This blend contains warming spices. These support the body's defenses in cold weather, which is why the use of tea masala increases during winters.

How to Use Tea Masala

  1. Daily Tea: This masala blend contains ginger, black pepper, cinnamon, and cardamom. These spices add a natural warmth, making the masala chai feel so comforting.
  2. Black Tea: Add a pinch to simple black tea without milk. This masala still works beautifully. It gives your tea a warm, spiced character.
  3. Masala Doodh: Stir in a pinch of hot milk along with a little sugar or jaggery. It’s good for kids and adults both, especially before bed on a cold winter night.
  4. Rainy Day Chai: Use a little more masala than your usual pinch when the weather is cold or rainy. The spice feels more comforting with this kind of weather.
  5. Custard or Kheer: Mix a little spoon at the end of cooking. This masala adds a comforting layer to the dessert without changing the actual method.

Sourcing and Origin

Hathi masala sources each spice for this mixture from its best-growing regions across India. Cardamom pods and black pepper from Kerala. Ginger-based masalas are from the Northeast and Assam, and a few ingredients are from Gujarat. Hathi masala chooses these regions because their soil and climate produce spices with good essential oil content and a better fragrance. Each spice is evaluated for fragrance and quality before processing.

Key Ingredients: Ginger, cinnamon, black pepper, clove leaves, nutmeg, cardamom, cloves, black cardamom.

How to use chai masala?

It’s used to make authentic masala chai. This masala adds a rich, spiced flavour to your boring cup of chai. It’s widely used in daily masala chai, but it also pairs well with spiced milk, rice, kheer, and even smoothies for an aromatic boost.

​How much chai masala can I add to one cup of tea?

You just need to use a small tsp per cup. Add it while your tea is boiling. If you want high, strong flavours, you can increase the amount of this masala, but always start with a small amount and adjust it accordingly.

​How can I check whether my chai masala is good?

The smell test is the best way to check this. Open the pack, and if it gives off an immediate smell of cardamom, cinnamon, and cloves, it’s the right quality. If it has no smell or gives off a faint smell, it has already lost the spices' oils and compounds during processing.

​What are the differences between hathi chai masala and regular tea premix?

Hathi chai masala is just a masala mix. It doesn’t contain any tea leaves or sugar. A tea premix contains tea leaves, ground sugar, and milk powder. You just need to add water. With chai masala, you have to prepare the chai yourself using tea leaves and sugar.

​Why is cryogenic-ground chai masala better than the regular one?

This masala is a mixture of multiple spices that contain heat-sensitive oils and active compounds. A traditional grinding machine generates heat, which evaporates these oils. Hathi masala uses cryogenic grinding, which cools the spices at –150°C before grinding. This low temperature locks in the oils, giving a stronger smell.

​How should I store chai masala at home?

Transfer this masala mix to an airtight glass or steel container after opening. Keep the container in a cool, dry place away from moisture and direct sunlight. Always use a dry spoon. Use it within 3-6 months of opening.

​Does hathi chai masala contain tea leaves or sugar?

No. It is just a mixture of a few spices. It doesn’t contain any tea leaves or sugar. You have to prepare the chai yourself, using tea leaves and sugar. This masala is created only to add spiced flavour and aroma. 

​Can I use chai masala daily?

Yes. A pinch of this masala in your everyday chai is perfectly fine. Since it is a natural masala mix with no added sugar or other additives, most families use it as part of their daily tea routine instead of just on special occasions.

​Can I use chai masala in anything other than tea?

Yes. You can use a pinch in spiced rice, kheer, custard, and even a few smoothies. The warm, aromatic masalas that enhance your tea also add a nice background flavour to milk-based desserts and certain rice dishes.

When exactly should I add chai masala?

Add this masala when the tea is boiling, along with the milk, tea leaves, and sugar. Do not add it at the end. The spices have a chance to fully release their flavour into the tea, giving you that perfect masala chai taste every time.

Worth buying

Hathi Tea Masala is a quality product. The fragrance is nice and natural. My only suggestion would be to add a resealable pouch. The masala tends to lose some aroma after opening. Taste wise its excellent!
