The 10th day of this advent calendar from Teanzo! And this is the tea we get for today.
I really loved this. I wouldn’t really call it a “chai” exactly, because a) there really are only two spices that I’d associate with a chai, and b) the spices aren’t really strong enough for me to think “chai.” If I were to taste this blindly, without knowing it was called a coconut chai, I wouldn’t have guessed it was a chai by the flavor.
I would have guessed it was a spiced coconut tea.
And as a spiced coconut tea, this is really delicious! The black tea is a prominent flavor (always a good sign in a tea blend) and the coconut is a strong presence too. The cinnamon and ginger add warmth but not a lot of zing to it. It’s more like a yummy baked good that’s been lovingly prepared with just the right amount of spice.
It’s really yummy. I liked this a lot. This is one that I’d happily drink again and again.
