MIND'S EYE MASALA CHAI

Take a sip, close your eyes, and you are transported to a space of comfort, nostalgia, and inner warmth.  A fully natural chai just hits differently.  

Pick me if: You love chai but do not love artificial flavorings, scents, syrups and such that tend to go with it.  You want a masala chai made of just pure single origin, organic, deforestation-free black tea and high-end organic, fair-trade spices from around the world. 

Note: This may be slightly lighter than other "Chai" teas you have had since it contains only natural tea, herbs, and spices and zero flavorings or perfumes.  

Organic Ingredients: Assam {single origin} Black tea, Cinnamon, Ginger root, Clove, Nutmeg, Cardamom, Chicory Root, Spearmint leaf, Star Anise

Understanding the Ingredients: There is a reason we crave the spiced flavor in the fall.  Masala, coming from an Ayurvedic origin, is a warming, digestive and immune supportive spice blend in tune with the cooling time of year when we begin to eat heavier foods and our systems crave warmth.  Every single ingredient was chosen with great thought and practice.  Single Origin Assam organic black tea for its deep, rich malty flavor.  Chicory root to add depth and allow the spices to set on the tongue just a bit longer alongside begin a powerful liver tonic which you get even more of this aspect in the second steep of this brew.  Cinnamon and ginger are warming and nurturing to circulation and digestion.  Nutmeg is a hug for the nervous system and inner sight.  Clove is protective and highly antimicrobial.  Cardamom nurtures the gut.  Star Anise is antiviral. Spearmint lifts it just a touch to add uniqueness to the blend, the finish you didn’t know you needed but totally love once you taste it.  Add a touch of milk and sweetener of choice and you have made an absolute treat for the palette and body.  Sit, sip, and settle into the season. 

Preparation: Use 1 Tb per 12 oz. of purified 200º water. Adjust amount of tea to your desired tea strength. Steep 5 minutes. Add your favorite milk and form of sweetness if you prefer!
