Starting with the snappy bite of ginger and the citrus twist of cardamom, chocolate chai exudes decadence with every sip. Inherently sweet with spicy warmth, chocolate chai brings the dark richness of chocolate chips to the silky smoothness of rooibos tea. With two sources of antioxidants, this dessert tea promises to tantalize your taste buds and deliver warmth in the evening or a boost in the morning!

for herbal chocolate chai tea blend

water temp212°F - boiling
time3-5 minutes
amount1-2 tbsp per 8 oz
decoctionConsider decocting this blend traditionally: Simmer this chai spice blend with milk and cream over sustained heat versus adding pre-heated water for an infusion. Be sure to strain the botanicals from your drink before sipping.
notes on tea strength The strength and flavor of tea is a personal experience.

We aim to provide times and temperatures that reduce the risk of allowing the actual tea leaves (or other delicate herbs in blends) to taste bitter due to too much steep time or to get scorched from too much heat.

If you desire a stronger cup, we suggest using more tea rather than a longer steep time to minimize the potential for a more bitter flavor.
