Shanti Chai

Chai is a sweet and spicy tea renowned for its fragrant aroma. Chai means tea. Masala chai is spiced tea made from a combination of black tea and aromatic spices, originated in India. Healthy, stimulating, and digestive aid. We are thrilled to be adding Shanti Chai to our collection! Our new signature chai is strong, flavourful, spicy and sweet. Notes of ginger, fennel and cinnamon blend perfectly with a strong and rich black tea base. Shanti Chai makes great chai lattes with any type of milk.

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Although my preference is to have a chai tea that a little more on the spicy and strong side, this is a very nice version. It is perfect for those who do not want an overbearing flavour of the spices traditionally used in chai tea. I have to brew about 2 teaspoons of tea to get it to the strength I like.

If you want to make your own traditional style masala chai from home, there are only a few things you will need:
