What is chai tea?

“Chai tea”, “masala tea” or “spiced tea” – they all mean the same thing. All three refer to a very popular tea from India made by brewing black tea, water and bold spices like cinnamon, cardamom and ginger.

 

Everything is simmered together in just the right ratio to create its signature flavour and irresistible aroma. Usually, milk and sugar are also added for a creamier and somewhat latte-like taste.

 

You can enjoy this taste at most cafés or buy chai tea online to make it at home. When making it yourself, chai tea bags can help you skip the hassle of measuring out spices but still let you enjoy an authentic taste.

 

Benefits of chai tea

Chai tea is undeniably delicious, which explains its widespread popularity. But what might not be as obvious is the range of health benefits that come with those flavours.

 

These benefits come from the amazing ingredients that make up this spiced tea. The black tea base rich in antioxidants helps protect the body by fighting off free radicals – the unstable molecules that can damage your cells. By reducing cell damage, antioxidants in chai tea might reduce the risk of some illnesses.

 

Ginger in it makes chai tea great for digestion! Ginger has a compound (gingerol) that helps boost the production of digestive juices. These juices get the work done by breaking down food and soothing an upset stomach.

 

Additionally, cinnamon in chai tea plays a key role in regulating blood sugar levels. This means that it may help reduce sugar spikes and crashes.

 

Curious to taste the benefits? Buy chai tea online and try it.
