Chai Tea is an ancient recipe that uses soothing spices including cinnamon, cardamom, black pepper, cloves and ginger. Chai Tea acts as a natural digestive aid and gives you a wonderful sense of well being. Ideal for those cold winter nights!
Instead of buying a pre made Chai mix from the shop that is high in sugar and fat, make your own healthy, caffeine free soothing goodness! I came up with this delicious mix as I was seeking something soothing that contains no caffeine and no added sugar or fat. So if you enjoy a cup of Chai Tea, try this recipe that you can enjoy more often, without the guilt!
