Apothecary Forest Chai Tea

$7.00

Apothecary's Forest Chai is a loose-leaf chai tea for anyone ready to move past the usual spice-shelf blend. A robust black tea base carries classic cinnamon, cardamom, ginger and clove, while Douglas fir needles and juniper berries add a crisp, piney, woodsy edge that sets this chai apart from the familiar masala chai formula.

Why You'll Love This Apothecary Blend

  • Spice with a forest twist: Warming chai spices meet fresh, resinous notes from fir and juniper for a cup with real depth.
  • Made for lattes: The bold, spice-forward profile holds up well to steamed milk, so it makes a rich, layered chai tea latte.
  • Loose-leaf flexibility: Brew it strong or light, hot or cold. You control the leaf-to-water ratio and steep time.
  • Easy to try, easy to gift: Start with a sample, or pick up the 3oz size for regular brewing or for the adventurous tea drinker on your list.

How to Make Chai Tea with This Blend

Add one teaspoon of leaves to 8 ounces of water heated to 200–212°F. Steep for 3–5 minutes, then strain. For a latte, pour the brewed tea over steamed milk and sweeten to taste. To cold brew, combine about one teaspoon per 8 ounces of cold water and refrigerate for 6–8 hours, or overnight for a deeper infusion.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Apothecary Teas' Forest Chai Tea have caffeine?
Yes. This chai is built on black tea, so it contains caffeine, and the level is high. A longer steep or more leaf will make a stronger cup. It is best suited to mornings and afternoons.

What is chai tea, and how is Apothecary Teas' Forest Chai Tea different?
Chai traditionally pairs black tea with warming spices such as cinnamon, cardamom, ginger and clove. This blend keeps that foundation and adds Douglas fir needles and juniper berries for a piney, woodland character you won't find in a standard chai.

Can I make a chai tea latte with Apothecary Teas' Forest Chai Tea?
Absolutely. Brew it on the stronger side, then combine with steamed milk and your preferred sweetener. The spices and forest notes come through clearly against the creaminess.
