This is nice! Very nice, indeed.
It’s been terribly hot over the last month or so here in the Pacific Northwest, but today, it is overcast and rainy. It is cooler. And I like it like that. Days like this are Chai Days.
This chai is a little different because some of the usual suspects are not appearing in the line-up of ingredients. Specifically, this chai does not have ginger or cloves. But that’s quite alright, because the cardamom and cinnamon are very flavorful here, supporting a delicious, rich black tea and the almonds give it a deliciously nutty flavor.
A very pleasant chai, made even more pleasant with a drizzle of honey and a splash of milk to make it a latte. YUM!
Terribly hot? I think you need to get out more. :P
