In recent years, "Chai" has become a staple as a cafe drink. It is common to add spices to black tea leaves and boil them in plenty of milk.

I 've introduced all the things you can enjoy at home before, but this time I found a new home chai in KALDI. The orange pack is the landmark "Masara Chai Base".

KALDI Masala Chai Base

Uses tea leaves from Assam that go well with milk. It is made by blending several spices with deeply boiled black tea and adding honey. The price is 429 yen (tax included) with 500 ml per bottle.


To drink, just divide it 1: 1 with milk and mix well. You can add ice and heat it in the microwave to make it hot.



This season's recommendation is definitely hot. By warming it, you can feel the aroma of black tea and the flavor of spices more strongly. The stimulation of ginger running spicy in the mellowness is good!

I feel the sweetness, but it is modest compared to the ones sold at convenience stores. The flavor of black tea and the feeling of milk are also strong, so the sweetness does not seem to stand out. Is it just right considering the balance?


A base drink that you can enjoy authentic chai just by mixing it with milk. If you want to increase the choices of winter cafes, please do.
