Legend has it, a monk traveling to China poisoned himself 72 times during his journey in searching for new edible herbs and grains. Before he faced his death, a leaf drifted into his mouth, chewed it, and that is how tea was discovered—or so the legend goes. Others believe that a great ancient Indian king created chai to remain alert and awake during long hours at the court. Regardless of which myth is true, it is undeniable that chai is one of the most consumed beverages in India. Chai, Hindi term for ‘tea’ is a warm spicy beverage carefully crafted with spices, herbs, sweeteners, and milk. The comforting warm beverage has years of history tracking back to ancient times. 

Tea soon became a heavily commercialized product thanks to a drive by countries such as India and China. Once it reached common households, individuals experimented by adding milk, sugar, different spices and herbs to suit their medicinal needs. Common spices that were utilized are cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, cloves, and star anise.  Chai eventually made its way to America in the 1940s, however, it wasn’t appreciated until the 70s and 80s.
