I drink Chai tea almost every night in place of a dessert. I usually use the pods for my coffee maker. I came up with this. I surprised my self. This is far better than any Chai tea I've had. I made it low fat. It it full of cinnamon,ginger,and vanilla flavor. That's what I love about Chai Tea. It's like drinking a dessert. I hope you all enjoy it. :)
