Mandarin Masala Chai

This chai company makes the best instant chai I've ever tasted. It's right on point with a homemade one where you simmer the ingredients on the stovetop. I've purchase the mandarin several times and it's my favorite. Will purchase again.

This is the 3rd flavor of Blue Lotus Chai I've tried, and they've all been excellent. 100x better than other powders that have sugar and milk already included. In fact I just tossed a $10 can of that other stuff because it's not even worth drinking compared to this.I've been drinking a cup of Blue Lotus Chai religiously as my wake-up cup for the better part of a year. Let me share some preparation tips.I'm an impatient guy so I try to do things as quickly as possible. So to make my tea, I take a 2-cup pyrex measuring cup and add 4 oz water and 4oz of whole milk. I toss in a regular tea bag (Lipton or whatever) to add some extra tea flavor to the mix, and then microwave it for 2:30. (YMMV depending on microwave wattage) This gets it just hot enough without boiling over and making a mess. I then add some tea masala (Indian tea spice) for extra flavor and finally add my tiny spoon of Blue Lotus and 2 tsp of sugar.Quick and delicious! I used to make chai the traditional way by boiling the milk and water on the stove and adding loose tea to steep as it simmered. Took some time and was messy. This microwave chai is just about as good and way more convenient.If you like chai I don't think you'll be disappointed. Try my suggestion above of adding a tea bag to the mix, because I do find the powder is a bit weak by itself, but the addition of the tea bag and the masala makes everything just right.

I love this brand, I give 4 stars just bc I rather the chai traditional flavor bc I can feel the ginger like the one I make myself. But in general they excellent chai.

Forget stopping at popular chains this tea is amazing. Made in Oregon this product is yummy and organic.

Easy to make, comes with an adorable mini wooden spoon and makes me feel so warm and cozy. High quality tea and spices!!

This is a surprisingly strong powder - not spicy, just strong - a little of it gives a lot of flavour. The citrusy tones are pleasant and not overpowering.

I love these teas! I prefer the Mandarin flavor. PLEASE NOTE: THE MEASUREMENTS ARE FOR A 4 OZ CUP, NOT AN AMERICAN 8 OZ OR MORE!

Faint flavor compared to the few other blends I enjoy from Blue Lotus.The canister didn’t have much of a scent upon opening, so I wasn’t too surprised by the lackluster results.I brewed my first cup with an extra scoop of powder. Still tasted “watered down” in a way. Just not enough punch on any note.Nice to have something different in the cupboard, though wouldn’t buy this specific blend again.Try star anise, mint, or golden instead 😍
