I almost never drink chai. It’s something best saved for cold winter days, and in Texas, those come at a premium. But it’s finally chilly enough that I’m reluctant to pad around the house bare-footed, and I thought I’d give it another go.
I’m crazy about pumpkin-flavored anything, so DAVIDs TEA’s pumpkin chai seemed like an ideal choice. It’s absolutely adorable, for one—it has little pumpkin-shaped candies inside! Unfortunately, I just can’t get the hang of brewing it. I’ve been drinking my tea mostly without sweetener or milk, and I’ve found it difficult to get this one strong enough that it stand on its own.
It smells absolutely heavenly, though, which makes me a little sad.
