This new interpretation of chai tea, created in collaboration between Sosa Ingredients and Martin Lippo, offers a fresh take on this classic drink. Originating in India, chai combines tea with a variety of aromatic spices. Although in Hindi “chai” simply means “tea”, in the occidental world it has been adopted to specifically designate this delicious infusion.
In this “Non-latte Chai” brew, the milk has been replaced by almond drink, which combines perfectly with the various spices. We have incorporated Naturfoam: 100% plant-based foaming agent for flavoured drinks. You can find out more about its characteristics and advantages of use in the following post: Flavoured drinks experience with Naturfoam: the natural foam agent
