Houjicha Chai

Tea blended with spices has a long history, and masala spice chai from India is widely popular with many variations depending on regional recipes and key spice or tea preferences. This creative take on chai uses houjicha tea with aromatic chai spices and roasted roots to create a plush, spiced brew, perfect for a winter warm up. Houjicha is a traditional style of Japanese green tea roasted to a deep chocolatey and toffee-like taste. Combined with fragrant cinnamon, sweet and earthy licorice root, aromatic cardamom, spicy ginger, black pepper and deep roasted chicory root, this brew is a unique green tea take on the classic masala chai.
