I gotta agree on this one, actually. Instant tea?

I’m with ellis about not using artificial creamer. For one thing I think it’s helpful to teach people that it’s not hard to brew your own tea. I’ve been giving my homemade herbal teas with a Goodwill tea pot and a tea strainer for many years as gifts. Chai is just one of them with directions to add warm milk and honey. Many of my friends have come back saying it started them on a whole new adventure of “make it yourself”

Elis….while I normally use organic, all natural, I am also aware that there are people who do not and have no intention of doing so. I prefer to make chai from black tea and whole herbs…and I have a recipe on site for that as well. However…for a quick mix this works great and tastes great.

I’m sorry to be negative but really?
Artificially flavored non-dairy creamer (full of unhealthy fats/chemicals), powdered “tea” mix,” caramel flavoring?
This is not chai, this is at best ‘artificially flavored chai mix.’
It sounds like something they would sell at McDonalds or Dunkin Donuts, not even the stuff they serve at Starbucks.
If a person is able to buy cardomon pods, cloves, ginger & cinnamon locally, then how hard is it to use real tea, include a tea ball with the gift? Talk about ruining an effort by using half-assed shortcuts.

Wow, that is one half-assed way to make some chai.

It is an awesome addition Carrie, I like to pick up vintage tea cups and add them in too.
