What is Chai tea?

Originating in India, Chai has gained worldwide popularity, becoming a drink of choice for many in coffee and tea shops. Traditionally, Chai is made by brewing black tea with a mixture of Indian spices and herbs. But to spice things up a little, we’ve taken the basics like ginger, cardamom, coriander, cinnamon, cloves, black pepper, calendula and sunflower petals and added a hint of vanilla. This simple but delectable vanilla Chai tea makes light creamy flavours, sure to satisfy anyone’s taste buds.

How to make Vanilla Chai tea

You can drink Vanilla Chai tea hot or cold. When making it iced, it’s best to brew a more concentrated hot tea with more tea used, in less water. then pouring it over ice. The ice will dilute the tea when its poured. Adding a touch of honey to round off the infusion makes this loose leaf tea a blend to relish.
