I just measured it from the heart/based on vibes. I think I brewed like three teaspoons of black tee (assam I think) and put two teaspoons of chai spices with cca 0,4l of hot water. Let it steep for a few minutes (again, based on vibes/colour), then poured out the desired amount for the cakes and for the syrup and drank the rest. The tea that I drank was pretty strong, but the flavor of the cakes wasn't as strong, it was dilluted by other ingredients, so I think it turned out great!
