- If you’re making this chai syrup for gifting, you can easily double, triple, quadruple etc. this recipe as long as you have a big enough bowl. However, I do recommend making it in a large pouring vessel because it will be easier to pour the finished recipe into jars if you have a pouring spout. Try using a 2-quart measuring cup for the best ease in filling the jars.
- Each recipe will fill one half pint jar with chai ice cream syrup (minus 2 tablespoons (keep that for yourself).
- Keep refrigerated for up to three weeks.
How To Package Ice Cream Syrup As A Gift
- Fill a half pint jar or other decorative jar (with a lid) with chai ice cream syrup. Tie ribbon around the jar and finish with a bow on top.
- Place a sticker on the jar with the name of the recipe, storage instructions and shelf life.
- Give the jar with a fun set of ice cream bowls and the best ice cream scoop, sprinkles and nuts for the ultimate family gift.
- Wrap the whole gift in cellophane.

What Is Chai?
Chai is the Hindi word for tea. So, when we ask for chai tea, we are actually being redundant by saying, tea-tea. The term “chai” is actually the shortened version of the word “masala chai” which translates to “spiced tea” in Hindi.
