Default Tea Is Okay Sometimes... I guess.

My kids and I tend to drink Tea when we are sick. That is usually about the only time we do.. However Coffee is something I find my self addicted to.. I literally have withdrawal symptoms without it. Headaches and migraines are instantly relieved with the first sip.. My favorite brand is Folgers, however if I am out and about I drink Pumpkin Spice and Cinnamon Dulce Latte's... If I am experiencing a slight cold then I get a "Refresher Tea" from Starbucks.

Actually...
You're right. They do make their own, which is the Tazo Tea brand. Starbucks acquired that company in 1999. I did not know this until now, but it makes perfectly good sense in retrospect. Thanks for pointing that out!

IMHO Tazo and Oregon are quite anemic if you're looking for good/rich chai flavor. Give Big Train or David Rio Chai a try for truly outstanding chai. To each his own, but based on my experience and hearing from others pretty much anything from Charbux leaves alot to be desired.

I want to say they had a season Ginger Bread Chi that was honestly awesome, and as I've said I like their chai, but that may be due to the fact I've never had a premium chai. Not really. Not one that's not Tazo or Oregon.

Thanks fellas. I've started my list of "Chai to Try"! and will most likely do so with cold season approaching in Michigan soon.
