Our Chai Recipe: Communal Living

There’s nothing like a hot cup of chai on a cold day–or even a warm one! The delicious spices and aroma wafting from the cup remind us of home (wherever that may be). It’s so easy to brew, and there are plenty of additional flavors you can add to really make it your own.

Communal Living Is About Coming Together

Sharing a cup or two with friends is the perfect way to spend an afternoon, especially in communal living. It gives you a chance to get to know your neighbors better and chat about your families and lives.
