After a week of sweating and sweltering (we broke record highs twice), the temps turned authentically seasonal overnight and I woke up craving one of the fall teas it’s been too hot to enjoy. This came to mind first.

Some tea blenders don’t make much of a distinction between chai and gingerbread. The spices in this blend are stacked in a way that does make you think of cookies and soft gingerbread. A little orange peel tugs it even more in the pastry direction. Drunk with milk watching the sun come up, it’s just right.
