herbal chai to nourish the heart - body and soul
this blend was born as a surprise holiday gift for my own husband, who doesn’t drink caffeine. i made him a few specialty batches of different tea blends and this one was so beloved and constantly requested that he begged me to add it to the shop. everyone in our family loves this one.
it brings the spicy, warm sweetness of chai’s flavor profile without the caffeine of black tea. we substitute black tea for rooibos, an aromatic shrub from southern africa that is rich in antioxidants, polyphenols, quercetin, and more. it is fermented in the sun to create a deep red color and a sweet, caramelized flavor. rooibos has traditionally been used to support heart health, regulate blood sugar, and reduce inflammation.
we add hawthorn berries for further support of heart wellness and circulation, as well as their delicious fruity flavor.
the traditional chai spices like cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, allspice, and black pepper combine to offer the distinctive delicious flavor of chai (i worked hard to find the perfect balance for that gift!) as well as supporting the circulatory system, warming, and digestion.
you can brew this like a tea with water and optional sweetener of choice, or steep longer in a pot of milk for a more traditional, concentrated blend. use daily!
