Tea Forté’s Turmeric Tantra Chai is an elegant herbal tisane quite unlike any other. Wildly popular in many Asian cuisines and widely used in traditional Ayurvedic medicine, turmeric brings a pungent dose of herbal flavor to this blend, pairing perfectly with its notes of licorice and lemongrass. In India, spiced chai (the Hindi word for “tea”) has long been a tradition focused on black tea as its base, but chai’s global evolution has broadened to include additional varieties of tea leaves and tisanes. As a result, delightfully unique blends like this have emerged. It’s both difficult to describe and wonderful to enjoy.
