Dirty Chai

Once you have the Dirty Chai, there’s no turning back!

Milk tea when mixed with coffee is often referred to as dirty chai. We take it a notch up by adding our signature 7 spice blend to it thereby creating a wonderfully smooth drink.  One sip of this distinctive beverage will leave a creamy mouthfeel when drunk with milk (or its substitute). The premium coffee in this blend gives your chai an additional caffeine boost leaving you energized for the day! The spices selected in the blend naturally combat the acidic nature of coffee so it’s not too strong on your belly! 

Fun fact- “ A double dirty chai” refers to two shots of espresso when served at a cafe.
