Chocolate Chai

---

I'm not really a big tea fan but i saw this recipe & just had to try it. I love the blend of spices with the cocoa, it's really great. I used vanilla tea with mine so mine was more like a chocolate vanilla chai, i suppose you could experiment with things like caramel or even toffee tea too. Recipe is from sfi.
