Piper and Leaf Sunrise Chai 9ct Tea Bags in Muslin Black Tea
$13.99
Piper and Leaf's Sunrise Chai is a lighter, more refined take on traditional chai—refreshingly spiced without overwhelming the senses. Hand-picked Nilgiri black tea forms the foundation, layered with warming cinnamon, ginger, cloves, coriander, dill seed, and fennel for a smooth, sophisticated brew that works beautifully hot or iced.
Unlike heavier chai blends, this one lets the quality of the black tea shine through while the spices add a gentle, aromatic complexity. Steep a muslin bag for 3.5 minutes at 212°F to unlock the full flavor profile—perfect for morning cups, afternoon chai lattes, or chilled summer refreshers.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is chai tea, and how is Piper and Leaf Sunrise Chai different?
Chai tea is a spiced black tea blend traditionally enjoyed in South Asia. Sunrise Chai emphasizes a lighter spice balance and higher-quality Nilgiri tea, making it less intense than many commercial chai options while remaining full-flavored.
Does chai tea have caffeine?
Yes. This blend is fully caffeinated thanks to its black tea base, providing a natural energy boost similar to standard black tea.
How do I make chai tea with these muslin bags?
Steep one bag in 8 oz of hot water at 212°F for 3.5 minutes. For a chai latte, brew the bag in hot water, then add milk and sweetener to taste. For iced chai, brew, cool, and pour over ice.
