Warming chai spices during the colder months are my jam! The traditional chai spices are cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, nutmeg, and clove. Typically, chai is made with black tea, but our Adaptogenic Golden Chai elixir contains green rooibos instead; a caffeine-free red tea. We did this so this elixir can be consumed any time of day. Our Adaptogenic Golden Chai contains all the traditional chai spices, with a few medicinal additions… • Turmeric root with black pepper to combat against inflammation • Ashwagandha root to support the nervous system and combat against anxiety and stress • Maca root to support vitality and energy • Licorice root to support GI health and soothe an upset stomach (also for natural sweetness) Try this delicious and nourishing Chocolate Chip Chai Cookie recipe by @sculptedkitchen
