I have done the math. After one school year of buying (substandard) iced tea at Starbucks, I have spent $578 and approximately 33 hours of my life (2.89 for a tea, 10 minutes to go and wait and get it). For my own home brewed tea, which takes close to NO TIME to make, I am spending 60 dollars a school year (30 cents a cup, 2 tea bags a morning). With my 518 dollars in savings, I will be buying a pair of exorbitantly expensive boots. WHICH I LOVE. Everyone wins: Twinings, Frye Boots, and America. THIS TEA IS GREAT.

To be taken only in the morning unless you have no reason to sleep that night.
A tea to heal the disturbed mind and soul. A tea for the Irish.
Take half and half with even skimmed milk and you will never see coffee again.
Wake up and smell the tea.
How kind of the Amazon to offer it on line. I shall never again suffer tea-separation anxiety when the local grocer is out.
A source of peace and of comfort far from home. More powerful and peaceful than any artificial pharmeceutical prescribed. Take two cups and call me in the morning.
Thank you, O mighty Amazon.

My wife is Indian and loves Chai tea, but we’re busy people and it takes a long time to make it properly. She has tried the following:
1. Starbucks Chai Latte (from Starbucks) 2. Starbucks Chai (concentrate, the cardboard box with the syrup in it) 3. Trader Joe’s Spiced Chai (powder) 4. Oregon Chai (powder and liquid) 5. Some other Chai powder that Costco had a few years ago but I don’t remember the name now.
Except for #1 (which is crazy expensive at >$[…] a cup), the rest have been lackluster. But then she found Twinings Indian Spiced Chai Tea which is exactly what she was looking for, but you can’t find it in every grocery store.
Follow the instructions (1/4 cup milk, 3/4 cup water, 2 tsp sugar, tea bag) and you’ll make a perfect cup every time, at like 1/20th the price of Starbucks.
UPDATE: Now that they have changed the product from “Indian Spiced Chai” to just “Chai”, it is nowhere as good. I have to reduce my 5 star rating to 3.
UPDATE 2: Here’s her new favorite: Yogi Chai Rooibos, also available from Amazon.
