drank Star Spangled Chai by The Devotea
2816 tasting notes

I feel like such a wastrel. My day hasn’t been too productive as I went to the physical therapist and ended up in too much pain as they tried to push my arm/shoulder into moving more. Ultimately it’s good for me but ouch…. I needed some pain medication after my appt. and it was all downhill from there.

Anyway I just woke up from a nap and decided I needed some caffeine to revive me so I’m finishing off this sample from the Devotea. This is a unique chai because it has star anise in it, which gives a spicy licorice type of flavor. I just googled star anise and it’s supposed to be good for cold and flu season which would make this a nice thing to have around in the winter time. Right now it’s delicious with some soymilk and a teaspoon of coconut sugar. Deeee-licious and fragrant!

That sounds delicious. I’ve been wanting to try a chai with a lot of licorice flavour in it.

I am a fan of many different teas but my favorites are blacks and oolongs, chai, also like darjeeling and pu-erh. I’n always learning and expanding my horizons!

Dislikes include: bergamot, jasmine, highly tannic or bitter teas, overly judgmental and bitter people. :)

Live in San Francisco, I’m a SINK (single income, no kids) and love the urban life, but traveling out to the middle of nowhere is always fun too.

I tend to not drink things I know I will hate so a lot of my tea ratings are on the higher side. Here’s my rating system, sorta
