When my brother visited for a few weeks recently, I purchased 2 boxes of his favorite tea, Café Escapes Chai Latte. I was rather surprised by his choice since I have never known of him to be a tea drinker. He has always enjoyed a good cup of coffee, but not tea.
When he shared his new favorite hot drink, I was immediately reminded of Wednesday Elf's review a few weeks ago of Chai tea where she shared how much she enjoys the blend of spices in Chai tea.
Because they both recommended it, I decided to try one of my brother's Chai Latte k-cups. Clearly, the "latte" in the k-cups title informs us that milk is added. That is something else I have never done. I have never added milk to tea.
In spite of my misgivings, I was pleasantly surprised!
The aroma is the first thing I noticed. I could smell the blend of "savory spices" that Wednesday Elf described. With the first sip, I understood why my brother loves the taste. Thanks to them, I have discovered a new favorite black tea. I quickly added the k-cups to my k-cup drawer of preferred coffee and tea.
Café Escapes Chai Latte Keurig Single-Serve K-Cup Pods
This Chai Latte has quite a unique flavor, one I find I cannot easily describe. It reminds me a little of hot chocolate or cocoa, which I love, but with additional tasty spices.
Chai tea touts several benefits including improved digestion, boosts immune system, reduces inflammation, improves heart health and more. That is an impressive list of health benefits which would be a lovely side-effect for me since I love the taste of the Café Escapes Chai Latte and the convenience of k-cups.
The Gray Wolf Mug
The mug used in the introduction photo above, is available on Zazzle.com. It is one of my own personal photos that I offer in the House of Sylvestermouse Zazzle Store on a variety of products. The Gray Wolf mug does seem totally appropriate for warm hot Chai Latte on a cold day.

Delighted to hear that between me and your brother, you have become a fan of our favorite Chai Teas, Sylvestermouse. I have never tried milk in my tea before either, but will have to give this 'latte' version you recommend a try next. And, you're right, your Gray Wolf mug is the perfect mug to drink this lovely tea in.
ReplyDeleteI am not a tea drinker but perhaps I’ll give this a try. Sounds enticing
ReplyDeleteI, too, really enjoy the flavor of a warmly spiced chai latte, Mouse. Your gray wolf mug is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThis tea is absolutely a tea I know I would enjoy. My son uses a keurig and I very much enjoyed his choices of coffee when were visiting.
ReplyDeleteI like those Chair flavors too. Good recommendation.
ReplyDeleteOkay, I'm a coffee drinker, but after Pat's and now your review of the Chai Tea, I think I will have to give that a try. Sometimes too much coffee does take it's toll on my nerves, not often, but often enough that I wish I had an alternative. This just might be it! Thanks Pat and Cynthia for putting this on my radar!
