A spot of tea!

*ahem*

Chai Tea is delicious. What is chai tea? Chai is simply the word for tea in South Asia and in the Middle East and comes from the Chinese Cantonese word for tea "Cha" (Wiki!)

Anyway, this delicious tea is full of spice and a strong one at that. Looking to wake up in the morning? Try some chai tea as it is more popular than coffee in India and served alongside in coffeehouses in the previously mentioned countries. Chai is usually brewed using black tea leaves.

Ingredients can include, but not limited to, nutmeg, cinnamon, cocoa, vanilla, caramel and chocolate, as well as licorice. Licorice is a strong flavour in the chai I am drinking atm. More sugar than usual is required to bring out the flavors in chai and I use 4 cubes of sugar. Traditionally you add milk to Chai, though I have not done this as of yet.

I enjoy a toasted peanut butter sandwich with honey and a cup of chai in the evenings a delicious combo.

Talk about all teas! Red tea is also good as well and I do enjoy green tea also. Red, Green and Chai Tea are my favorites though.

    Chai tea with milk is the only way I drink it. If you want a fucking delicious, smooth drink, throw some ice, milk, and chai into a blender. It's goddamn amazing.

    Yeah, I have this really spicy Indian Chai that I've been drinking lately. Add hot milk and Splenda to it. Delicious.

    Actually "chai" itself means tea, so chai tea is redundant

    It's like saying katana sword

    Anyway it's fucking delicious and I'm gonna have some right now

    green

    evening delight

    peppermint

    fruit zingers

    and I have yet to perfect my choice chai tea. whenever I want tea, I think, maybe I'll try chai again; wait no, fuck that, it always sucks. I'll just have peppermint.

    I've only been drinking it straight though without taking the tea bag out ever, so now you know the rest of the story.

    I recently gave up soda and for the most part replaced it with tea (granted it's not as refreshing on a hot day). There's this french vanilla tea that I get that's really good!

    There are these tea plants in china that grow in areas that are too dangerous to pick. So they train monkeys to pick it for them. It's delicious.

    Sorry man, they took away my read access to this forum. I only have write access. In fact, all I see above is a block of text. I'm just assuming you said something like "I totally made this point last page" but I have no idea, really. I'm responding this way in the off chance you said something to that effect, but forgive me if that's not the case.
