My acupuncturist told me I could stop drinking mint tea if I became a monk and lived in a state of constant meditation. That ain’t happening any time soon so for now I drink Refresh. This tea is delish. I drink 2-3 cups of this a day. It always makes me feel calm and balanced. It also sooths my stomach on days after tequila shots (like today!). Just be careful not to let it steep too long (2 minutes tops) and don’t ringout the bag into your cup. It’s super bitter for some reason.
I haven’t been letting myself get chai every Friday because I’m trying to save some money (and calories) lately, but I gave in today. Not surprisingly, the one I got today tastes pretty amazing since it’s been a few weeks since I had one! Happy Friday!
I’ve grown to need my daily chai… or at least my stomach thinks so. I’m really grateful to have a chai I can make at home that’s even better than at a coffee/tea shop (unlike espresso drinks- haven’t gotten the hang of them yet). And it’s even sold where my cousin goes to college so she can bring me some when she comes home on the weekends. :)
To be honest, Bhakti is my chai of choice when it’s available! I finally bought some of the concentrate for home and it’s just as good as when I get it at my favourite restaurants. Super spicy and wonderful—I love it! I can’t “afford” (calorie-wise) to drink it every day but I budget it in here & there.
Yeah, I wish I could get Tipu’s when I go out. But, I’m very fortunate that it’s fat and calorie free (except for the stuff I add to it)… This way my budget and stomach can handle daily consumption. :)
I haven’t been having this every Friday like usual since I’m trying to watch my calories a bit better lately (and save money). I also wish I liked Caribou Coffee’s chai latte better (because honestly, I’d rather give them my money vs. Starbucks), but I don’t. Today’s Tazo chai latte tasted pretty phenomenal, I have to say. Absence does make the heart grow fonder in this case!
Use tea bags instead of the syrup- much better flavor (IMO at least… I haven’t met anyone yet that thought differently). :)
I don’t like to get bags because then I have to stand there for 5 min. while it brews so I can take the bags out (otherwise if I leave them in on my drive to work, it’s way too bitter by the time I get there).
Set a timer and throw them in the garbage bag in your car when it goes off.
I don’t have anywhere to stop to pull them out on the way to work. Believe me, I’ve tried it and it doesn’t work out!
FRIDAY CHAI. My favourite time of the week! This one tasted particularly good… the Starbucks I got it at is pretty insane, customer volume-wise, so I usually avoid going there, but considering that the last three I got there all tasted pretty amazing (and were piping hot), I might have to make that my regular location for chai!
