Hi all... after mentioning to my mum that I enjoyed the odd chai latte from Costa, she bought me a selection of different teas for Christmas, including supermarket chai tea. Must admit, I really liked it! I say liked, as just had the last one. I am eager to replace. Perfectly happy with just getting the same replacement, but wondered if there's any recommendations on here?

I did find eventually the flavour didn't seem to hit so hard, maybe I just got used to it, if that's possible? Would prefer a slightly stronger taste if possible smile

See if Lidl still have it one special. I'm going right now to my local to get more!

Ginger and Masala (no longer) in stock.

ETA: damn, they had the (recommended in another thread) india tea which was quite nice.

I also buy various ones off Amazon. No specific recommendations they are all nice.

Royal Chai is a decent brand.

Try the masala or karak flavours.

Tea Pigs Masala Dream.

You might need to use two depending on how strong you like it, as they are a bit stingy with the tea.

Vayu Masala Chai is the pick of the bunch from our local Indian Supermarket.

www.vayutea.com (can order online). Can buy loose leaf too so you can make it stronger.

Also for real spice punch you could try MDH "T-Plus" Masala spice blend - add to simmering milky tea. We got it to make decaff chai.

These look great, thanks.

I do like Tea Pigs, though they work out quite expensive if you're drinking them regularly!
