Strange knock and big suprise

by Nicci on 08/31/2009

Boy! was I excited on my sick day to look out the apartment window and see the UPS man was here to visit me!   The nice people over at Oregon Chai Tea sent me samples to try, Thanks Cedar! :)   I couldn’t wait to tear open my box and see what was inside!  I was sent their Organic Original flavor in concentrate and powder form.

I liked how I could smell the spices instantly; it reminded me of Christmas!

I decided I’d try out the ”On the Go” packets, that are in powder form.  All you have to do is add hot water or cold (add milk for a creamier taste ) mix and drink!  Mine didn’t blend well at first but I think it was due to the cold water I added straight from the frig; I think tomorrow I’ll try cold tap instead.  Since the mixing did not go as planned; I poured the drink into the blender and added 1/3 cup of soy milk.

The Chai tea came out nice and tasty, I prefer a cold beverage but I will be trying this drink hot tomorrow morning.

Overall, the Chai Tea was good, I didn’t care for the 25g of sugar but it didn’t taste like it contained that much & one ingredient I could not pronounce.


My taste buds enjoyed this drink!! :)

What’s your favorite Chai Tea, if you drink it…any flavor or brand?

Hey girl–I looooooove chai. For lattes, Starbuck’s vanilla chai is to die for… But I usually just use their Tazo hot chai tea and doctor it up with a little milk and sugah

owwwwwwww looks fabulous- perfect for a sick day. Love the frothy top! I’m not a tea person :(

I love chai tea! Yeah, I prefer loose leaf or chai in a tea bag without the added sugar …. I don’t think it needs the sugar, it’s good without it! Too bad so much chai comes with the sugar already mixed in it : (

Chai tea is so good, especially with soy! I stopped drinking the lattes when I worked at Starbucks because the syrup had a ton of sugar. Instead I would make a chai tea misto using the tea bag with soy and either sugar free vanilla or sugar free cinnamon dolce.
