This is a tea swap thanks to the lovely Jillian on Steepster. I think if I had more time a little honey or sweetener might enhance this tea, maybe creme? Sad the coconut isn’t a stronger flavor. This however is a wonderfully smooth and spicy chai.

Yeah, unfortunately it really doesn’t deserve the name ‘Coconut’ Chai. I’m glad you’re enjoying it though!
sometimes i wonder if the people naming them just look at the ingredients? i can’t wait to try making this with some milk and maybe honey, yumm
