Chai is one of the hottest beverages around—and one of the most healthful, with benefits ranging from reducing heart attack to slowing the aging process! In many languages, chai means "tea." The blend we know as chai is from India, where black tea is blended with aromatic spices, steeped and mixed with milk (a British influence) sweetened, and called masala chai. Unlike other chai, Watkins has included the health benefits of green tea as well, along with all natural premium spices and flavors such as cloves, cinnamon and cardamom. Just add milk and your favorite sweetener to taste, and enjoy. If you like the taste of Chai but prefer the convenience of instant, try Watkins new Chai Latte—a delicious instant beverage with the exotictaste of chai and the creaminess of latte. After preparing Watkins Chai or Chai Latte with hot water, they can be served hot or chilled. They're so delicious and easy to prepare, they'll make your holiday gatherings a whole latte fun for everyone!
