Our 100% organic signature chai spice with intruguing hints of saffron and elderberry. Brew it up alone, or use it to simmer your own chai on the stovetop. . . . Our chai spice is a rich formulation building on the traditional cardamom, ginger and cinnamon base with intriguing additions like whole vanilla bean and saffron. Our blend is the result of working with some of the most devoted baristas in Minneapolis for field testing.
The goal was to create an incrediby versatile chai rich enough to drink alone as a caffeine-free option, but balanced enough to blend with a base tea of your choice like Laoshan Black, Yu Lu Yan Cha, or Anxi Fo Shou Black. Intensely warming, and naturally sweet, we are excited to share what has become a sensation at coffee shops throughout our hometown of Minneapolis.
