Pink Chai Tea offers specialty tea menus, hotels, and cafés an eye-catching twist on a traditional Kashmiri spiced recipe. Its striking ruby-pink infusion creates a memorable visual presentation that captivates guests in any food service setting.
Crafted with gunpowder green tea grown up to 1,800 metres alongside aromatic spices from Sri Lanka, India, and Egypt, this blend yields a full-bodied cup with warming spice notes and sweet hibiscus. The addition of natural hibiscus petals creates an instant pink colour, streamlining service without requiring lengthy traditional cooking steps.
Containing low caffeine, this versatile blend serves delightfully as a hot brewed cup or as an indulgent pink chai latte when combined with frothed milk. Double-brewing the blend and pouring it over ice creates a refreshing chilled spiced tea for warm weather menus.
