What is chai?

Chai is a black Darjeeling tea from India with exotic spices added and served in a milk base like a latte.

What does chai taste like?

Mmmm. Creamy and comforting. Kind of like a flavored hot chocolate, only with vanilla and cinnamon. Some people say that our Traditional Spiced Chai tastes like Pumpkin Pie in a cup.

Does chai have caffeine?

Chai has only a little caffeine, but what it does have is cardamom, which is a spice that is a mental stimulant. So you stimulate your mind, without the coffee jitters. If you just simply cannot have any caffeine, we also carry a decaf, which is in the traditional spice flavor.

Why chai is better...

Some of the ingredients in Chai have been reported to have some interesting qualities. Such as...

GINGER-is said to be very cleansing and balancing for the digestive system. Many use ginger to help relieve nausea and body aches related to colds and flu. It also said to be helpful to the respiratory system.

CARDAMOM-is said to stimulate the mind and give clarity without the jitters normally associated with coffee.

CLOVES-are said to invigorate and help generate heat in the body.

CINNAMON-is said to be good for the circulatory system and to enable other herbs and spices to work faster.

HONEY-has been used throughout the centuries to help support the immune system.
