  1. Good Earth. By Far!! I've tried 'em all.

    1. If you want very hot chai, go to an Indian grocery and look for "chai masala". There's a kind I bought that has pepper and ginger high on the ingredient list and is quite fiery. You stir that into whatever tea you choose.

      1. RIght now I'm enjoying Tazo's Chai. It's the pre-mixed kind, comes in a square box. You mix half the chai mix with milk, and then heat. You can add more or less mix, depending on how strong you want it. I keep it at work. It's so easy to heat up in the microwave, and delicious!

        1. re: Heidi cooks and bakes

          I like Tazo too (especially because I'm pregnant and they have decaf chai teabags). I find all the premixed ones too sweet, though. I like to take a teabag and heat it in a cup of milk, then add just a few drops of honey. It's not spicy, so you might want to add a little spice to it.

        2. This one is spicy!! It is a spice mix only and you need to get your own tea.


          1. Upton Tea Co sells a decaf Chai Tea with red pepper - very good. Their regular Chai is good too but no heat
