Chai Dreams Spiced Dandelion

$21.00

A warming, caffeine-free chai made with roasted dandelion root instead of tea leaves.

Roasted root gives a toasty, chicory depth - think mild coffee vibes without the jitters - and classic spices finish it off: Warming ginger, green cardam pods, cinnamon, aromatic cloves and star-anise soft liquorice lift with a peppery finish of cracked black pepper.

Straight in water you get a clean, nutty flavor with caramel edges; It becomes thick and creamy when simmered with dairy or plant milk - perfect for evenings or whenever you want chai without the caffeine.

As there is no Camellia sinense here, the cup is low in bitterness and forgiving - steep longer for more roast and spice without fear of tannic bite. It makes a good bridge for coffee drinkers, a light digestif after dinner, and a base for iced tea.

Dress with honey, keep neat for drier finish or cold-brew overnight for velvety smoothness. Whether you want comforting, Spiced or caffeine-free, chai Dreams - spiced Dandelion delivers cafe aroma and Chai satisfaction with a grounded feel.
