Description

Classic Indian black tea blended with aromatic spices, traditionally served with sweetened warm milk.

Our chai masala tea starts with a full-bodied Indian black tea, strong enough to carry milk and spice. We blend it with warming ginger and cinnamon, fragrant cardamom and clove, a sweet note of anise and a gentle kick of pepper.

The result is a rich, rounded spiced tea that fills the kitchen with its aroma as it brews.

Enjoy it black for a bright, spicy cup, or make it the traditional way with warm milk and a little sugar or honey for a creamy, comforting chai.

Every bag is tagged and sealed in its own envelope to lock in the spices' fragrance until you're ready to brew.

Our story

What is masala chai?

In India, "chai" simply means tea, and "masala" means a blend of spices. Masala chai, spiced tea, is one of India's best-loved drinks, sold at street stalls and railway platforms and brewed in homes across the country.

No single recipe
There's no single recipe. Every family and every vendor has its own balance of spices, though cardamom, ginger and cinnamon are the most common, often joined by clove, anise and black pepper.
The tea
The tea is usually a strong Indian black tea, brewed with milk and water and sweetened, so the spices and creaminess come through together.
Our blend
Our blend brings those classic spices together with Indian black tea in a convenient tea bag, so you can enjoy the warmth of masala chai without grinding a single spice. It's especially welcome on cold Scottish evenings.

At Brodies, we have been blending since 1867. Explore our full tea collection, or try another warming favourite, our Lemon and Ginger infusion.

Chai masala tea FAQs

Clear, simple answers to help you make an informed choice.

What spices are in it?

Classic black tea from India blended with ginger, cinnamon, cardamom, clove, anise and pepper.

What does it taste like?

Rich, warming and aromatic: a robust black tea with the sweet spice of cinnamon and anise, the fragrance of cardamom and clove, and a gentle heat from ginger and pepper.

How should I brew this tea for the best flavour?

Pour around 250ml of freshly boiled water over one bag and brew for 3 to 5 minutes. Brew closer to 5 minutes if you take milk.

How is chai traditionally served?

With sweetened warm milk. For an authentic masala chai, simmer the bag in water, add milk and sugar, then heat until steaming.

Can I make a chai latte with it?

Yes. Brew one bag in a small amount of freshly boiled water for 5 minutes, sweeten to taste, then top up with hot, frothed milk. It works with dairy or plant-based milk.

Does it contain caffeine?

Yes. It's made with black tea, so it naturally contains caffeine.

Are the tea bags individually wrapped?

Yes. Each box contains 20 tea bags that are individually tagged and enveloped to seal in freshness, aroma and flavour.
