This Spiced Drink Is So Good, Sipping It Has Become My Cozy Afternoon Ritual
"It features just three ingredients - black tea, cinnamon, and cardamom - all of which are sourced in India. You can choose from a box of 30 tea bags or 100, if you're a big chai fan. The 30-count box is perfect for me and costs $14.99, which means each mug is just under $0.50. Hard to argue with that!"
"As soon as I smelled this tea's warm, cinnamon-y aroma, I knew it was going to be good. Cinnamon definitely is the main flavor, which I love - especially this time of year. The cardamom adds a fragrant, slightly peppery note that goes so well with the cinnamon. Together, these two spices make for such a comforting cup of tea. Plus there's a bit of caffeine in it, so it's a great afternoon pick-me-up as it gets darker earlier."
"I usually steep the tea bag in hot water for five minutes (the box's instructions say three to five), and then mix in my favorite vanilla coffee creamer. You could totally add milk, sugar, or honey instead, but I love the combined sweetness and creaminess I get from the creamer. That hint of vanilla flavor also rounds out the warm spices really beautifully."
The tea contains three ingredients: black tea, cinnamon, and cardamom, all sourced in India. Available in 30- and 100-count boxes, the 30-count costs $14.99, making each mug under $0.50. The cinnamon provides a warm dominant flavor, while cardamom contributes a fragrant, slightly peppery note. The two spices together create a comforting cup with mild caffeine that works well as an afternoon pick-me-up. Steeping three to five minutes extracts the flavors; a five-minute steep emphasizes aroma and spice. Adding vanilla coffee creamer, milk, sugar, or honey customizes sweetness and creaminess, with vanilla rounding out the warm spices.
