Follow The Directions

01

Step

Steep the Chai: Pour boiling water into a heatproof vessel (mug or small pitcher). Add chai tea bags and allow to steep for at least 5 minutes to extract the rich, spiced flavor. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Infuse and Chill: In a large pitcher, combine the freshly squeezed lime juice and lime zest. Fill the pitcher halfway with ice. (2 minutes)

03

Step

Blend and Sweeten: Slowly pour the steeped chai tea over the ice in the pitcher. Stir gently to combine. Add water to fill the pitcher to your desired concentration. Stir in sugar until completely dissolved, adjusting the amount to your preferred sweetness. (5 minutes)

04

Step

Serve: Pour over ice and garnish with lime wedges or a sprinkle of lime zest for an extra burst of flavor.

For a richer flavor, experiment with different chai tea blends.
Adjust the amount of sugar to your personal preference. Honey or agave nectar can be used as alternatives.
If you prefer a less tart limeade, start with the juice of 8 limes and add more to taste.
For a festive touch, garnish with fresh mint sprigs or edible flowers.
