From Solstice Tea Traders

Loose leaf black tea is blended with dried spice pieces including cloves, cardamom, cinnamon, anise, peppercorns and dried citrus.
Brewing instructions:To make authentic chai, heat half milk & half water on the stove. Put one heaping teaspoon of masala tea per cup of liquid in the water while heating. Also add sweetener of choice. Bring to boil while watching closely so your milk doesn’t boil over. When it bubbles up, stir down twice as it bubbles up & then remove from heat. Strain out tea leaves & spices then serve. This is the only way to get the true flavor of the whole spices.

Ingredients: Chinese black tea, cinnamon, orange peel, peppercorn, clove, cardamom, anise star (whole)

Almost finished with all the tins from this sampler! This was a very underwhelming chai… I felt like I just didn’t see a lot of the spices in the mini tin? And the flavor is very bland… I can taste the anise, so it has a strong black licorice flavor (I’m one of the few people that actually loves black licorice so this was fine for me) but I really didn’t taste anything else. Occassionally there was sort of a musty cinnamon aftertaste? Maybe age did this one particularly dirty, or the tin just did not get a good distribution of spices in it. It definitely didn’t have a strong enough flavor that I would ever imagine drinking this as a latte. Since all I could taste was the anise, I added some sugar syrup to my iced tea to really boost the black licorice flavor which was pretty pleasant, but judging this as a masala chai, it was really lacking.

I like that black licorice flavor too, glad you were able to salvage the cup as sweet tea!
