This classic chai tea chia pudding has the perfect flavor combination o all the spices of chai tea and the benefits of chia.
This chia pudding is very light in texture and with tons of warm notes. It is the perfect pudding to start the morning if you serve some cashew yogurt on top or as a dessert if you serve this chai tea chia pudding with whipped coconut cream.
The tea is from Mountain Rose Herbs, and I have to tell you that from the moment I opened the box, I could smell the deliciousness of the tea.
Just imagine clove, cardamom, and cinnamon together. Delicious right? the complexity of flavors it’s really outstanding and I’m sure you haven’t tasted anything so delightful like this one.
I mean Mountain Rose is a company that knows exactly how to develop the perfect spice mix for the perfect classic chia tea. They have been offering high-quality organically grown herbs, spices, teas essential oils, DIY ingredients, and botanical goods since the first day of business.
You will notice that this is not the classic creamy vanilla or chocolate chia pudding recipe. For starters, I hydrated the chia seeds (which are also from Mountain Rose Herbs and are fantastic) with the classic chai tea mix.
