"Excuse me do you make your Chai with real leaves or syrup?.... Real leaves? Great in that case I'll have a (voice drops down a few decibels) large Soy Chai Latte with honey thanks"
I cant abide the syrup stuff... Eew
The reason for soy? I think it tastes creamier and richer
Now that the weather is warming up I'm experimenting with a chilled version
I'd like to have a go at mixing my own brew and you can be sure I'll go a little over the top with ginger
Gorgeous Jo shares a recipe here and if you love the flavours you may even try making a Chai cake
I buy my brew for the tea heaven that is T2 (my home away from home) - some say it's a little heavy with the cardamon pods but I think that's why I like it so much
I even purchased a vintage copper tea strainer to add to the magic of my Chai ritual
Teamed with a few fresh Medjool dates and you have a sweet treat that is actually good for you
So to Chai or not to Chai? What are your thoughts peoples?
