Masala Chai Tea Latte

4 whole cloves 
2 cardamom pods 
1 cinnamon stick, broken into pieces 
3 cups water 
1/4 inch fresh ginger 
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 
2 cups milk 
2 tablespoon sugar 
2 tablespoons strong black tea (assam or darjeeling)

Add spices, water, ginger and pepper and bring to a boil. Simmer on low for 5 minutes. Add the sugar and bring to a boil again. Pour out into cups and add steamed milk. Serve!

Very popular tea from India of course, becoming quite popular in the USA although most probably isn’t authentic.

I Am chronicles the journey of an Indian lesbian filmmaker who returns to Delhi, eleven years later, to re-open what was once home, and finally confronts the loss of her mother whom she never came out to. As she meets and speaks to parents of other gay and lesbian Indians, she pieces together the fabric of what family truly means, in a landscape where being gay was until recently a criminal and punishable offense.
