Chai (Indian spiced tea)

My simple version of Chai. It's decaf green tea, not too strong, with some ground cinnamon and cardamom, as well as a generous amount of honey and sugar. (I actually like unsweetened tea; it's just not good for me.)

I like to dip crispy baked cinnamon-sugar Mediterranean crackers, as well as homemade biscuits, in my tea. The Chai is very warm and soothing. A few winters ago, when I had aches and pains from the very cold weather, this was one thing that helped a lot. This post is in honor of #internationalteaday !

Eggless Marble Cake for Teatime

This cake is from a recipe of Magic of Indian Rasoi. I used a little too much cocoa mixture to swirl in, but the taste wasn't affected. The use of powdered sugar made it not-too-sweet. I thought it tasted even better the next day (stored in fridge). The pan sizes suggested are not available here, so I used the next-closest size loaf pan.
