Chai tips & tricks
Strength
Prefer your chai with a bit of extra kick? Add an extra teaspoon of T's Chai and a little extra sweetening to serve.
Milk
Milk is a super important part of a traditional chai. We use normal milk or soy milk for its nutty, creamy flavours but you can always experiment with your favourite milks.
Spice it up
A sprinkle of cinnamon, nutmeg or even a little chilli are a fun way to dress up your chai, taking the flavours to new and even spicier heights!
Iced Chai
Summer’s in full swing, but feel like a spiced chai concoction? Brew as above, cool for 15 minutes, then pour over ice for a tasty iced chai.
