7 Health Benefits of Chai

Traditional Indian chai consists of a blend of spices, including cardamom, cinnamon, cloves, ginger, peppercorns, and star anise. These spices are combined with a black tea, typically Assam or Darjeeling tea. We have also chosen African red rooibos tea for a caffeine-free option. Each spice used in chai provides several health benefits as listed below. These include each of the ingredients used in our three chai blends, Simply Chai, Golden Chai, and Rose Petal Chai.
