Advent Calendar Day 4
I generally steer clear of teas with “apple” in the name because so often they taste only of cinnamon and not of apple at all. This one is a happy exception to that trend! I really am getting apple vibes…not fresh-from-the-orchard apple, but more like a baked apple with a bit of cinnamon and ginger sprinkled on top. The spices don’t overwhelm the fruit at all (not sure it actually qualifies as a “chai” to be honest!) and the nutty flavor is also quite subtle: to me, it’s coming across almost like the skin of the apple. I’m pleasantly surprised by how much I ended up liking this!
Flavors: Apple, Apple Skins, Cinnamon, Ginger, Smooth, Sweet

I actually debated with myself about whether I should call it “spiced apple nut” or “apple nut chai” and I decided that I seem to call everything “spiced.” Since this was crafted just as autumn approached, I went with chai to go with the season because – it’s my opinion that autumn/fall should just be called CHAI. :)
Agreed about the apple and cinnamon, but yay for this tea being different!

haha, yep, autumn is the drinking gallons of chai time. :D
