Instant chai? Never! What's so special about David Rio Chai

Our chai is real. It contains real ground tea, real ground spices, plus honey, cane sugar and natural flavors. We want the full chai flavor to unfold from the authentic ingredients used in traditional chai preparation on the Indian subcontinent.

David Rio Chai is not an instant product.

The natural ingredients do not simply dissolve immediately in milk. They need to be stirred well, preferably with the aid of a small whisk. Or you can use the steam wand of an espresso machine. But you will be rewarded for this little extra effort with the very first sip.
