Celestial Seasonings Sweet Coconut Thai Chai
This is just fun to say…Go ahead…say it…Sweet Coconut Thai Chai.
First of all it is decaf, which I don’t usually like….but…
I loved this tea. I know, it is a cheap grocery store brand. That’s o.k..I like Celestial Seasonings as an ethical company because they have been around for 30 years and were working on sustainability and ethical business practices before it was a cool thing to do. But that isn’t why I like their teas.
It’s good. And this tea is really good.
The tea is cloudy, not clear. As you steep it a coconut aroma wafts up from the cup. Sweet, and almost like a coconut cream pie. You can’t really smell the spiciness of the chai because the coconut overwhelms it.
I tasted the tea without adding cream or sugar and it was good but I like chai with half and half and sugar. I added my normal amounts of each and was transported to coconut thai chai heaven.
The coconut adds a creaminess and mellows the chai spices, and pulls them together in a unique flavor blend. Usually, in a chai I can pick out this spice, or that spice, but in this you taste the coocnut first and last with the chai sandwiched in between. Not in a negative way, either.
Ingredients are:
rooibos, decaf black tea, cinnamon, chicory, ginger, coconut, cloves, cardamom, nutmeg, paprika, black pepper, and Chinese star anise
Add a white chocolate chip macadamia nut cookie and you have a complete meal, right there.
