Toasty caramel meets classic chai spice. Rich, warming, and naturally sweet, with deep notes of caramelized sugar and a smooth, creamy finish. A satisfying cup on its own or even more indulgent with a splash of milk and a little sugar.
Quick tip: Turn your bag upside down a few times before scooping to redistribute the spices.
