FireBird Chai

FireBird  I, the glorious FireBird, am an imposing beast with the exotic complexity to guide you through a wild adventure of savory, sweet, spicy, and back again. Brace yourself if you think you are ready to experience the wonder of FireBird. I am a Spicy Masala Chai that leaves scorched remnants of other Chai teas far below my ferocious wings. I am born of the meanest Indian Estate black tea available, cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, cloves, black pepper & all spice. Where other Chai teas expect you to add milk and heaps of sweetener to balance the bitter taste of inferior ingredients, I stand alone as a unique masterpiece. My elevated nature is most notable from the refusal of being satisfied with anything but the very best and strongest tasting Premium Indian Estate Tea available. This compliments the spices and will not dare be buried under them, but earthy decadence soaring ahead for the lingering trail of spice and flavor following on your pallet.   Suggested Brewing step 1. Heat water to a boil. step 2. Use 1 heaping teaspoon of FireBird per 8 ounces of water. step 3. Pour water over tea leaves and let steep for 4-5 minutes.   step 4. Immediately strain leaves from liquid. step 5. Enjoy your ride on the FireBird.    Ingredients: Premium Indian Tea base, Sun-Dried Baby Ginger Juliennes, Kerala Cloves, Kerala Cinnamon bark, Sikkim Black Pepper, Kashmir Green Cardamoms and Naturally-Extracted All Spice Oil (contains clove oil, cinnamon oil, cardamom oil, ginger oil and bay-leaf oil in certain proportions). Contains 5.5 oz of loose leaf tea.    -To make more tea out of your used tea leaves, repeat steps 3 through 5. Only re-use leaves this way in the same sitting. -Start with the above, and then experiment to find what you like best! More tea leaves and/or longer steep times will make the taste and aroma stronger. Try 2 or 2 1/2 tsp per 8 oz if you wanna get wild. -Try me hot or iced -If you like your tea sweet, try it with honey, raw sugar, or agave nectar. -I won’t tell anyone if you throw a spot of milk in there too.   **5.5 oz of loose leaf tea brews approximately 60 x 8 oz servings of tea** **FireBird has approximately 1/3 the caffeine content as a cup of coffee... so drink more**
