What is Masala Chai Tea?

In India masala means spice, and chai means tea. Essentially, Masala Chai is Spicy Tea!

Masala Chai is a tea made by combining boiling black tea with milk, water and a mixture of aromatic herbs and spices. Masala Chai Tea may have originated in India, but it has gained worldwide popularity, and become a feature in many coffee and tea houses.

Do You Only Offer Chai Tea? 

No, we do much much more. We offer a range of authentic Indian teas including: Kashmiri/Pink Tea, Karak, Ginger and more. We also have snacks available to serve with the tea.

What is Karak Tea?

Karak tea has a strong flavour and a beautiful caramel colour. It is an aromatic, spiced tea that is famous for its unique taste. It’s similar to Masala Chai, but with less spices. You could make a Chai Karak with just tea, milk and sugar.

What is Kashmiri Tea? 

Also known as Pink Tea, Kashmiri Chai is a milk tea with a dusty pink colour. It’s distinct pink colour comes from brewing it with green tea leaves and baking soda, and then mixing it with milk. Delicious!

What are the Teas Made From?  

Our teas are made from natural ground spices, black tea powder, cinnamon, cardamom, ginger and lots more Indian spices. Our recipes have been perfected by us, as home, meaning we’re able to guarantee authentic taste and perfect freshness.

Which Snacks Do You Offer? 

Snacks were invented to accompany tea drinking (probably), so of course your tea setup will also include snacks. We provide biscuits, rusks and even traditional Gulab Jamun.

What is Gulab Jamun? 

A popular and cherished traditional Indian dessert. Gulab Jamun is a small, round sweet ball.

Is The Chai Cart a Self-Service Setup? 

Typically when you book our Chai Tea Service you’ll also be booking us to serve your beverages and snacks. However, if you would like to arrange a smaller setup please get in touch.

Can I Have A Chai Tea Setup Without The Cart?

If you are limited on space and would like an indoor home setup, without the cart, that can be arranged. Our prices are reflective of hiring the cart, so if you would like to book a table set up, without cart, please send us a message for a quotation.

What Customisation Options Are Available For The Cart?

Our Chair Cart can be customised to blend seamlessly to your event, let us know your colour scheme and we’ll design your Chai Cart setup to match. We can also provide extra personalisation with printed name tags and more.
