As promised continuing with the fall drink theme this Thirsty Thursday we wanted to share some hot tea drinks for those tea lovers out there. After all, as the weather begins to change and we begin to feel a slight chill in the air there is nothing like sitting down to relax with your favorite comforting cup of hot tea. Chai is a great a fall favorite with its warm spice and earthy sweet undertones. For those who love pumpkin, add in a little pumpkin spice and your taste buds will love you. We are sharing both a caffeinated and decaffeinated option so to enjoy it any time of day. Tazo's chai pumpkin spice tea (we found at target) was our inspiration for the Pumpkin Spice Chai tea and Numi's Rooibos chai (found at a natural food store) was our inspiration for the Classic Chai tea.
