What? Gasp! No! Say it ain't so!
Now before you freak out, I'm not giving up on my bean juice, I'm just broadening the horizons a bit.
A while ago, I joined Smiley360 to give my opinion in exchange for free stuff. So far, this relationship is working out pretty darn good for me. I fill out a survey, see if I qualify for the latest mission item and if I do, in a few short weeks a box arrives at my door containing the product. All I have to do is say I got the product for free then honestly share my opinion of it.
This time, Tazo Chai Tea was the mission, and I happily accepted. My kit arrived with three tea bags and coupons for full sized concentrate - one for me and two to share - I chose vanilla caramel, my friends chose pumpkin and the original chai.
The vanilla caramel chai concentrate...oh my bob. Let us just take a moment to enjoy the sweet and spicy aroma of this.....the sweetness of the vanilla and caramel satisfied my sweet tooth while the spiciness of the chai woke my palate and said "you know, this is going to be a good day."
The concentrate makes it super easy, you just add milk. I love that the milk is not already in it since I can't have regular milk - so I made a 50/50 mix of the concentrate and my beloved soy milk and voila, instant latte and I didn't even have to put on real pants. It's delicious hot or iced and if you're feeling particularly fancy, top it with whipped cream and a sprinkle of nutmeg.
The bags are slightly trickier in that you need to make sure you've brewed it long enough to get all those delicious flavors - honestly they are tasty just as a cup of tea but much better once you add that touch of milk to make the creamy chai latte we've come to thoroughly appreciate.
Overall I give this product two enthusiastic thumbs up.
