This Chai was my favorite of the pack of four. A great start to my daily early morning kundalini yoga practice.

So good! Very licorice and cardamom. I mix it with a hot water then add a little oat milk, maple syrup, and honey.

I am a morning coffee person but I have become addicted to this masala chai! It gives me just the right energy boost and makes me feel better throughout the day. I think the adaptogenics make this chai different from others I've had in the past. I love it with a bit of almond milk and agave or honey. Also perfect for traveling since the powder is light and easy to carry. Just add your hot liquid(s) of choice. Will definitely be reordering.

I have been using a lot of your products for years and still enjoying them. However, I did not like the taste of the Masala Chai. It really didn't do anything for me. This has been the only product I have not cared for. Sorry.

Barbara (United States)

This tea is wonderful! I know a lot of reviews are about flavor. And I love the blended flavor of this spicy tea. But this combination seems to work wonderfully for my digestion! I drink a cup first thing in the morning, and it helps to set me up. I have a Vata constitution, and I can easily have a second cup in the afternoon.
Please please don’t stop making this blend!!!
Ordering more now!

Marvelous and delicious! I make mine warm with whole milk and honey. Better than ice cream or a sugary treat.

Caffeine and I don't get along:confused:

I use a very small amount in the morning added to organic spices of cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves. ginger, and cardamom to give me a little lift. This addition plus,
, the mixture created help prevent the caffeine jitters, works for me!

LOVE THIS CHAI!

I wanted to switch up my morning coffee with something and found this Chai. I decided to give it a try and fell in love with it! I absolutley love that this Chai is ground up in a powder form so there is no steeping, it makes life a little bit easier in the morning and that goes a long way with me. It has a great flavor of the differnt spice blends, especially wonderful in the fall. I like to make this hot in the colder months an i'll make this over ice in the warmer months. I add a little milk and honey and its perfection.

I've also noticed that the caffein in this tea is much more steady and does not give me the usualy coffee jitters, even though it packs a good punch. Knowing it has the added adaptogens in it is truley a healthy and holistic alternative to the usual coffee as well. I'd really love to see Banyan make an Earl Grey tea like this too!

Doesn’t completely dissolve

I didn’t like it at all! Doesn’t completely dissolve. Has a very bland taste.

Surprisingly smooth blend

This product pleasantly surprised me. I expected it to be strong. It is actually a really nice blend. You taste all of the spices but, it is not too bitter like some other companies blends I have tried. It is a luxurious start to the day with a little oat or rice milk. I love how easy it is to use. No tea bags to mess with, just mix in hot water. I have been starting with 1/2 tsp to make sure it agrees with me. I would love Banyan to make a chai without caffeine for an afternoon treat (maybe rooibos).

The BEST!

Fell in LOVE with this from this very first sip! Will aim to always have this on hand and use as gifts, too. Soooo excellent - best I ever have had (except when in India but this is as good!). I just ordered five more boxes and only wish I had ordered my last big order a week later than I did, when this great sale of 50 percent off was happening.

Husband review

I bought it for my husband for an Xmas gift as he LOVES chai
Drinks it daily
He personally didn’t order it because it had too much clove for him. That being just a preference. I’m not able to drink caffeine so here it sits in the cupboard unused . That however doesn’t mean it’s a good product . I bought all four teas and have tried the ones without caffeine ……. I have this an4 cuz it’s what I would give to the others. I think Banyan is quality herbs so thought I would try the teas while on sale.

Best Fastest Masala Chai in the world

I have been drinking masala chai for many decades. Banyan's Masala Chai is great. Fastest preparation in the world! The perfect sweetener is a little bit of Banyan's Chyavanprash. Since I do not drink milk, I add a little bit of "oat" milk, a brand which has zero sugar, only three ingredients: filtered water, oats and a tiny touch of salt. Makes it nice and creamy. Total yummm.

Absolutely delicious

I love all Banyans products and this tea is no exception. Even though I am totally able to make myself my own Masala Chai with spices, etc, this tea has something special and is just perfect. It's my morning treat! I find the price a little high though (hence the 4 stars)... I think I get closer to 30 ish servings on it (and not 42). Maybe I am using too much (but I like it on the stronger side). Plus it's very easy to travel with. Really love this product :)

OBSESSED

I have totally fallen in LOVE with this drink mix. I've found other chai mixes to be somewhat bland, but this one is rich and flavorful! I'm a caffeine drinker and this option is much easier on my body than a cup of coffee. Plus, I get my daily dose of adaptogens– YES PLEASE!

Wonderful morning tea

great flavor although pricey

I’m glad I purchased this because it is a combination of chai with milk thistle. It taste great and is a quick brew! It’s pricey for the small amount that you receive.

We're so glad you're enjoying our new Masala Chai, Annette! There are a few factors for the higher price point of this drink mix. There is a global shortage of Cardamom due to unpredictable weather events in the regions where the plant grows, though we are always monitoring this to continue to offer the highest quality product for the best possible price. Additionally, 21% of the Chai ingredients are Fair For Life certified, which certifies social and environmental responsibility across an entire supply chain and within an entire business. We hope this provides some context for our pricing model, as we value transparency. Please feel free to reach out to our Customer Care team if you have any questions!
