We have two more teas up our sleeve for October…here’s one for chai lovers.  Chai can go horribly wrong if the mix isn’t right  and this is a lovely blend popular over Christmas and the winter hols, which we found on our tea travels…

Walter Whittard started out in 1886 in a little shop in Fleet Street; today, Whittards sell 130 varieties of tea online and in store and do coffee and 20 varieties of flavoured hot chocolate, including Strawberry and Chilli.

Chai lattes took off in the States over a decade ago during the Starbucks revolution but chai has taken longer to catch on in the UK.  It’s the ultimate winter tea, spicy and good for you – it’s anti-inflammatory and a lovely warming tea on a chilly autumn night.
