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.
