Health Benefits of Chai

The luxurious steaming delight of aromatic spices and black tea has been around for more than 5000 years. The chai recipe handed down generations had its own variations, but is most commonly a phenomenal combination of cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, fennel, and peppercorn. These spices, along with Assam black tea, were used as herbal medicine rather than a beverage to treat minor conditions like to common cold.

The chai lattes we love today, is Assam black tea steep in whole milk rather than water, but still include the amazing spices. Take a look at the health benefits the next chai latte will bring to you. It’s not just a delightful rich and creamy beverage.
