The History Behind Chai
The word "chai" simply means "tea" or "milk tea" in several languages. However, when we talk about chai flavoring in the U.S., we typically refer to Masala chai—a spiced tea that originated in India as a unique take on British black tea.
During the era of the British East India Company, tea cultivation shifted from China to India. To boost local tea consumption, promotional campaigns encouraged the addition of local spices like cardamom, ginger, cinnamon, ground cloves, and black peppercorns, combined with milk and sugar for a rich, flavorful drink. The result was a massive success, and Masala chai remains one of India's favorite beverages.
