Story, Folklore, History
Chai or Tea? 'Chai' is the generic Hindi word for 'tea'. It has been associated with the concept of 'spiced tea' since the most popular tea in India is spiced black tea, however chai literally means 'tea' and nothing more. Those who refer to spiced tea as Chai Tea are in fact simply saying 'Tea tea' which makes no sense. We use the word 'chai' when referring to our spiced teas in acknowledgement the western evolution of the word.
