..Tea Tuesday - Drink Me Chai Review..


I’ve not had the best few days to be honest, I’ve been suffering from some awful breakouts, lots of dry patches on my face and a lovely eye infection, but one thing that has kept me feeling better is of course... tea! Now from my previous tea posts HERE & HERE you can certainly understand how much I love tea, so you can imagine how excited I was when 3 little sachets of Chai & Tea Latte arrived through the post from the lovely DrinkMeChai. I have tried Chai Latte before, but wasn’t too keen and just much preferred my cup of red bush or fruit tea, but this all changed when I gave it another try.

“After my first sip of the intoxicating chai during my travels in India, I was inspired to create a Chai that was true to that authentic blend of tea and warm spices” – Amanda Hamilton, Drink Me Chai Founder

I was sent the Vanilla Chai Latte, Spiced Chai Latte & Earl Grey Latte and all packaging was appealing with their bright colours and eye catching fonts. I delved into the Vanilla Chai Latte first which is described as “A fragrant blend of tea, milk & spices & vanilla” – I love anything Vanilla, so this one went down very easily. It reminded me of the Vanilla Lattes that I’d get from my local coffee shop, but with lots of Cinnamon which to me was a perfect taste. The Spiced Chai Latte which is described as “A fragrant blend of tea, milk & spices” was gorgeous, perfectly spiced and not overpowering at all. The smell instantly fills your senses and was perfect with a nice big slice of cake (#winning!) – I didn’t however, like the Earl Grey Tea:Latte  and the reason is because well, I don’t like Earl Grey. I love to give things a go, but halfway through it just wasn’t my cup of tea (pardon the pun) but if you’re a big lover of Earl Grey and want to try something a little bit different then this is for you.

Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed the Spiced and Vanilla Chai Lattes and will certainly be popping down to my local supermarket to grab some tubs. You can also purchase some different flavours by visiting the website – They currently have Green Tea, Mango, Peppermint & Chocolate flavours which are £2.50 each (did someone say bargain?!?) I would certainly recommend this brand for lovers of tea and for anyone that wants to try something different to their usual cup of tea in the afternoon.


Have you tried any of the Drink Me Chai teas? If you have leave me a comment and let me know what you thought.

  1. These sound lovely.Mum loves a chai tea latte but she only has one when she comes to the mainland (she lives on an island). This might just be the perfect Mother's Day gift for her :-) plus it's gluten free, awesome! I don't fancy the £3.50 postage though so I'll see if they have some locally. Great review, thanks.
