Award-winning, spiced Gingerbread Chai rooibos tea!
4.55Gingerbread Chai Tea
We have our Nordic neighbours to thank for the tradition of gingerbread. Every year the town of Bergen, Norway still build a lifesize gingerbread city to celebrate Christmas. What a nightmare for poor old Hansel and Gretel! Let's hope they are keeping a low profile and enjoying a steaming cup of our Gingerbread Chai instead!

I am not a tea drinker but after trying Gingerbread tea at a restaurant , I am hooked . It is divine , sublime and I look forwards to getting home from work to relax with a pot . Addictive, unusual and very chilling . Highly recommend
Warming and smelly (in the best way)
*****
This tea tastes like Autumn, which is pretty sick. It smells really good, and you can leave it to brew for... way longer than it says to and I find that it just makes it super warming for the throat.
T-mea’s Favourite! ♥️☕️

My mum's favorite!
I buy this blend for my mum all the time. She absolutely loves it and calls it her "special" tea.
Very enojyable
It smells delicious and tastes even better.
I drink it on its own, and also with milk and sometimes I add honey.
This is not what it says on the tin
Don’t be fooled - as I was. I bought this product, thinking it was a tin, as shown on the website. I was so disappointed to see a pouch of tea arrive - which totalled over £8 with postage. It makes for very expensive tea, albeit delicious I think you need to be more transparent with your photos and show the pouch - not a tin.
Loved it !
In my opinion, it’s great for winter. My mum drinks it every morning, just because it has ginger in it, it’s great for cold. It has a great taste too! Recommend it very much.
Best tea ever!! Ginger cake in a mug :-)
Wow! This tea is fantastic. Warm, spicy, comforting and delicious. I can honestly say it it the loveliest tea I have ever tasted. I highly recommend it.
My addiction
I love this tea and carry around a small tin of bags in case I am away from home and someone might expect me to drink a normal cup of tea. There seems no point in tea if it's not Gingerbread Chai!
Best of 2016 =
I understand why this tea was awarded best of 2016. It’s absolutely fabulous! All of the subtle spice notes of the chai can be ascertained and delighted in without the tea blend being overwhelming. I found that sometimes adding a little bit of extra ginger the way I like it, was remarkably over-the-top. This will be a blend that I will continue to buy. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Pleasant and mild
The smell is so amazing. I prefer my chai to have a stronger spice taste but this brew is perfect anyway, specially for cold days. Love it with a dash of milk.
Lovely gingerbready goodness
This tastes exactly how you would think - perfection. Definitely one to have with milk. I am considering getting the milk frother to test out the latte recipe! Fantastic.
A very spicy, no caffeine, late night treat!
The scent is super spicy! There are notes of frosting in both the fragrance and flavor, I swear… a frosting you might see on a gingerbread cookie. I’m beginning to see some sort of sweet note in a tea blend whenever there are mallow blossoms, so that is my theory. The flavor is very spicy, just like a gingerbread cookie (almost too flavorful — I definitely wouldn’t steep more than one teaspoon at a time!) It’s such a satisfying late cold night cup. Spicy with a hint of sweetness. And I’m not a ginger fan AT ALL. The second steep is slightly less spicy than the first cup, though still very spicy, with more of that cookie icing peeking through! I’m surprised by this blend and how much I like it, though I really shouldn’t be. This is a Bluebird blend. And they are awesome.

Spicy stuff
I really wanted to like this as I'm a big fan of rooibos, but found the cardamon and ginger just too overpowering so the more subtle spices are lost. Maybe do a little rebalancing?
Keep the magic going
Gingerbread not just for Christmas! This tea is delicious and spicy - ideal for the cold January weather. Not only does it taste amazing but also looks beautiful with purple mallow flowers amongst the ginger tea.
Can be drunk at anytime as it is a rooibos tea and is good without any milk or with a splash of almond milk.
festive chai!
Lovely fragrant festive chai
A real winter warmer
Warm and fruity with a ginger kick at the end of it. I bought it for Christmas, but it's a keeper - My new favourite tea.
My favourite tea
I love this caffeine free tea. It has a refreshing, slightly spicy taste
Almost perfect
I really enjoyed this tea. I brewed it for longer than stated to get a really rich flavour. The only thing that would make it perfect for me would be a little extra spice.
Gingerbread Chai Tea
Really enjoyed this different and interesting flavour. Will definitely buy again!
