This time of year (and anytime, really!) I adore a nice cup of hot Chai tea. Soothing and uplifting all at the same time, this tea is a perfect pick-me-up. In the past, I’ve always bought organic Chai tea bags and brewed the tea that way. But after Diane’s post, I really wanted to try making my own loose Chai tea. Unfortunately, Mountain Rose Herbs was sold out of several of the spices I needed. Rats!
Not being the patient type (at all), I proceeded over to Amazon where I found a loose Chai that I absolutely adore. This mix has a wonderful balance.

Mmmm looks delicious Melissa! I just might have to try that brand. Are you making it with all milk? It's so good.
BTW, my mustard is up and is delish! I had some for dinner last night. Thanx!
Diane, I'm not making it with all milk, but a healthy dollop goes in to the finished brew. So good! I'm glad to hear you are enjoying your mustard. I must say that kefir has changed my life! It gives such a tremendous rise in gluten-free baking. I soak all my flours in kefir before making anything. FABULOUS!
There's nothing like a nice cup of tea, it really lifts the spirits.
I hope you'll share sometime about the kefir for soaking. I haven't tried it yet, but would love to learn from you!
I too LOVE chai this time of year. I love that with all the spices in it, it's super healthy as well.
I don't usually make mine with milk at all, just like regular tea.
Thanks for the recommend, I usually buy the Mt Rose Herbs brand.
Ann, I completely agree! I have MANY different teas in my cupboard waiting for the urge to hit. I just had a cup of chamomile this evening...ahhh.
Diane, I've got you covered! Just posted my muffin recipe. : )
Suzy, I'm glad you stopped by. My plan was to order some herbs and spices from Mountain Rose, but I'm hoping they'll restock some of the ones I want soon. One shipment is much more economical. I haven't tried their Chai yet, I'll have to add it to my list.
