My first chai, thank you MissB. Before this cup I was hesitant to try chai. When I had asked a friend about it they only told me that chai was “spicy”. Ask the boyfriend, I don’t do spicy well, which is unfortunate because he is a big fan of heavily spiced, Cajun, type foods.

I added a small splash of milk. This seemed to bring out a cinnamon flavor. Very enjoyable for my lazy morning.

Preparation
Boiling 5 min, 0 sec 4 tsp 16 OZ / 473 ML

I’m very cautious about chai myself. I’ve had it a couple of times and I’m just not sure about it. It was okay the one time I had it, and the other time I hated it. I don’t know what kind it was either time.

I’ve been so lucky with samples. I don’t want to buy a tin of something that I am unsure of. I didn’t know there could be so much difference between teas of the same type, enough that it was okay one time and then not so much another!

I like samples a lot. It gives a great way to try a tea, and then if I really like it, I can order more. I’ve been ordering a lot of sampler sets, too.

Have you tried Della Terra’s sampler? You get to pick specifically which ones you want to try. —> http://www.dellaterrateas.com/custom-try-me-sampler/

I have not. It looks like a great deal. I’ll probably hold off a little bit as I’ve got three orders I’m still waiting for.

Trying something new from the various Traveling Tea Boxes or swaps has really helped me try new things so I can order things without worrying too much. If you haven’t done swaps or the TTB you might want to try it. I just finished trying from samples from the Tea and Card TTB. There were 62 different teas in the box. It was unbelievable. :D It seems that there are new TTB that open up pretty frequently. They do fill up really fast so if you want to try it, get your name in quickly. Also, lots of people are willing to swap teas.

I haven’t done swaps, because I don’t yet have enough to swap. I’m down for the TTTTB (my first!) and I bought a sample box from KallieBoo’s stash. I’m keeping my eyes open for TTBs for sure.

62 teas in one TB! Wow. I am also participating in the TTTTB as my first TB :).
