Coconut Chai

:)

WOW – that is some longevity on that tea.

Yeah! I really like it! I’m glad I still have enough left for a few cups, because otherwise I’d be desperate to find some.

Good luck on your final!

Wooo! I’ll keep my fingers crossed for you. Break a leg.

Will be praying for total recall :)

Sandy and I discovered that Southern Season carries Zhena’s teas and bought just because of your reviews! :)

It really does become gone before you know it!! Thank you once again for turning me on to this :)

No problem, I’m glad you like it!

this sounds interesting……

It is! Available at iherb.com (They ship to canada flat rate under 4lbs, so not too shabby.), or London Drugs. Or I can send you stuff in a bubble envelope if you want to rummage through my messy cupboard. :) I’ve found that as long as they teas aren’t super delicate, bubble envelopes are actually reasonable.

would you include a ‘strike’ sign? =0)

swapping could be fun.

LOL. Maybe…

This does sound good! Coconut – yum!

Hahaha that’s awesome. Also, who cares if it’s bagged, right?
(It’s just surprising!)

LOL I’m not a tea snob, I don’t care how it come – this is FANTASTIC. But yes a little surprised. :))

I tried so to find where to buy it too, but it either didn’t ship to Canada or shipping was outrageous.

Isn’t it good? It’s available at London Drugs, and goes on sale quite often.

you can get it here. It’s a us site but the shipping is cheap to Canada

Yay! I was just checking the Zhena’s site and the US Amazon. Thank goodness for Steepster :)

They have other things too like some Harney’s teas including loose leaf Paris..

I think here in NC it is available at World Market, Southern Season, and possibly the Fresh Market. I don’t know how widespread those chains are, though.

Thanks yyz – will check that out if I can’t find it at my local London Drugs.
(I’m seeking tea at London Drugs?…who would have guessed).

I think I sent you a few bags of their Chocolate Chai. Did I? I found it at Winners. Comes in a cute tin and was super cheap. Next time I go, I’ll see if there’s any coconut chai left.

LOL no you didn’t MissB – but that’s ok. I was just looking at the iherb website yyz mentioned and saw the chocolate chai rooibos, peach ginger, Tropical Green Berry Bellini. I might have to place an order from here. I didn’t realize they had all these fun flavors.

I don’t think I’m allowed to go back to Winners yet – little afraid they might still have/or more of the French teas.

Apparently you can buy from London Drugs online but unless our dollar takes a complete nosedive it’s still cheaper to buy from the US site because shipping is 9.95.

This is one of my favorite coconut chai teas, it is amazing, bagged or not

I’ve been waiting to walk by the Holiday teas from Celestial Seasonings as well! They’re not at Walmart, so I’ll just keep my eyes open. For a bagged tea, they work out well for an evening treat.

London Drugs pretty much only has the Chais. I like the iherb site, though. :) Thanks for the temptation, yyz! Cavo, Superstore had some of the Celestial Seasonings ones. They all have gluten, or I would have picked one up.

Cavo, they carry most of the Celestial Seasonings holiday teas at Bulk Barn. They have had them at the one near me since before labour day.

Cool! Thanks guys. :)

iHerb has this cute wee glass steeper cup for $3, and I’m so tempted to place an order. Retail therapy, etc. I don’t need it really, do I, tea friends?

Don’t you just love when a comment on a tasting note turns into a learning experience for several of us. You guys are just a wealth of information and awful enablers.. :))

OMGsrsly Wait to see if they have sales this weekend…..
(if you are ordering tea anyway…what’s a 3.00 steeper…)

Cute, right?

It’s very cute, and 3.00 is an awesome price!!!

Sigh. If it wasn’t 9:56pm on a Sunday, I’d be walking over to the London Drugs up the street from my place right now.

If I didn’t have to finish laundry and get to sleep, I’d offer to meet you somewhere and do a quick, clandestine tea trade off. :D

We’re awful, I’m thinking about what day this week I can get to the mall to check out London Drugs – LOL mine isn’t “just up the street”.

Heh. This is getting dangerous, OMGsrsly and Dexter.. woo boy. Love it!

Adding this to my shopping list too now! aaahhh!

How does this compare with Adagio Thai Chai? Have you had that one?

Yeah, I really like their Thai Chai. This doesn’t have any lemongrass in it, so it tastes a little less, um, Asian for lack of better words. I remember Thai Chai having a bit of a stronger coconut flavor as well, which is another reason why I like it better.

Cherry cheesecake bread pudding sounds devine!

It was sooo good, even if it was kind of a bootleg dish. I didn’t have any of the ingredients for bread pudding so I soaked the bread cubes in rice pudding (instead of milk), added fresh cherries (instead of raisins) and used some jello instant cheesecake pudding mix instead of custard. Definitely worked out well though! In fact… it was a lot tastier than regular bread pudding.

You really should try Yogic Chai’s Coconut Masala when you get a chance-they have real coconut in it.

I know! Everyone says they have the best chais. I have a big order planned there, but the issue is that it’s… well, big! I am saving up for it as well as weeding through my teas to “thin the herd” a bit but I keep getting tempted by sales and 52teas blends which means less money as well as less space. Damn my inability to resist tea!

Looks like they have free shipping @ $50 now, so maybe you could break your epic order into smaller orders? They used to have a $1 shipping on one tea promo, but they don’t appear to do that anymore.

Orders under $50 are calculated by weight and destination-so I bet shipping for a small order would be fairly cheap for you.

Their shipping is really reasonable, I just need to clear out some of my samples before I can buy any more tea! I physically ran out of room, I think I’m going to have to expand to another cupboard…

I hear you. My overflow storage now has more tea than my main storage area.
