Chai is brewed with milk and a mixture of spices. Each recipe can be different depending upon the spices used. Indian spiced chai is often referred to as Masala Chai. The word “chai” literally means “tea.” Different languages use various forms of this word – for example Portuguese call it “cha,” Hindus call it “chai,” and in Chinese the sound of the symbol for tea sounds very much like “cha.” “Masala” is the word for the mixture of the various spices – hence Masala Chai.

Our new Masala Chai has a more complex, traditional Masala flavor and is somewhat less peppery than the old version and is considerably less expensive. Black tea flavored with ginger root, cinnamon, green cardamom, ginger and vanilla flavor. Use one teaspoon per cut of fresh boiling water and steep for 3-5 minutes.
