Orange chai tea in a mug, garnished with a cinnamon stick and orange slice

Orange Chai Tea

Chai tea originates from India, where strong black tea has been consumed for centuries, mixed with rich spices. The perfect harmony of sweet and spicy flavors is made even smoother and creamier with milk. This orange chai tea is a special variation of the classic drink, where orange zest adds a fresh citrus aroma to the warming spices. Cinnamon, ginger, and cardamom together help warm the body and senses, while orange brings a touch of freshness to the drink. Perfect choice for a cool evening or a cozy breakfast. If you want to make it even more special, you can add a little vanilla extract or a pinch of nutmeg. Chai tea is not just a drink, but a real experience that is worth enjoying slowly sipping.
