Chai Black Tea - WS

Chai Masala (Spiced Tea) is a tea blend with origins in India. It is traditionally a mix of black tea and spices that is steeped in milk with sweeteners added to it. This Chai blend is formulated to brew in less time than when making traditional Chai. For this tea we have blended black teas with spices and added natural flavor to enhance the spiciness inherent in Chai Masala tea blends. This tea brews to an amber cup with an exotic spice aroma and taste. Ingredients: Black teas, organic cinnamon pieces, organic anise seeds, organic cloves, organic cardamom pods, natural chai flavor, and natural cinnamon flavor. Brew tea at 212º - steep for 3 minutes. 2 tsp Chai Black Tea 1 cup boiling water 3 oz. sweetened condensed milk 3 oz. coconut milk Brew the tea for 4 minutes in the boiling water.
