VAHDAM Instant Chai Tea (3oz/85g) - Traditional Masala Chai | Makes 100 Cups | Natural Spices, Zero Calories | Instant Indian Tea - No Steeping | Unsweetened Tea Powder | Free Bamboo Spoon Inside

I gave this a 5 star because the product is excellent and they have done a good job. I add about 100 ml of water and 50 ml of milk measured intoa mug and heat in a microwave for 90 seconds. Then I add a little sugar and then 2 wooden heaped spoons of Vahdam powder and mix. My earlier way of making tea from the start used to take me 9 minutes and now I can finish between meetings and use this in less than 2 minutes. It tastes better than making the tea from scratch and does not need brew time. Aside from the product being good I have some peeves with the company. 1. The wooden spoon is very unwieldy and I am not comfortable using it as it is a thick spoon versus a think one. 2. I did not buy it because of the 100 cups and after 20 days of use the tin is half empty. I would avoid the message totally. 3. There is too much of messaging and the instructions for making the tea is sidelined and too small to read. Its like a marketing agency had to fill every inch of the tin with marketing messaging versus practical how to. GOod companies would have expanded from oz to ml and how to heat water and milk. I did not get a good taste when I followed the recipe so you should definitely improvize. Another reason I like this is that you can actually take this with you and use it in hotel rooms with hot water if you crave your early morning cup of tea. I would definitely recommend this product but needs better instructions.

I love this stuff! I add a little to my coffee to punch up the flavor. I’m sure it would be great made with hot milk as well. Great flavor, easy to mix in, and so nice to have an easy way to make a chai at home. Highly recommended.

The size is a bit small for $11.99. The package says 100 servings and comes with a tee tiny measuring thingy, but as I’ve continued to drink it I’ve just been using a teaspoon to scoop out a healthier portion. The texture got better as I now boil the milk; it dissolves better that way. I use 8 oz of milk, no water. The blend is on the spicy side as black pepper and ginger are the first 2 ingredients. It’s a bit spicy. But some may like that. I personally miss that there’s no anise. It’s a good instant tea but the 100 servings label is misleading unless you like very weak tea.

This is great! I wanted to be able to make a quick cup of Chai at work without bothering with bags. Just don't make my mistake and use regular spoon and add it to the hot water; way too strong! Then I went back and read description that said makes 100 cups and it includes the little wooden spoon. I will be buying this for future gift baskets as it is delicious and is quite inexpensive. Very happy with everything I've tried from Vadham and many more items to try!

EXTREMELY BLAND!!! No flavor at all, even if I dump many spoons into the milk, it tastes like plain milk, no flavor, no taste. Better buy a loose leaf and brew. I bought this because I thought it would be convenient but its just 12 dollars down the drain, no spoon given with it. Vahdam is one of those 'artisanal' companies that claim to have authentic taste, but instead is just dirt in pretty packaging. Don't let the packaging fool you. Wasted my money on this. Now I am stuck with a brown powder dye that barely even changes color of 100 ml milk. I don't know what the company wanted to create, but they have created a bland brown dye. Does not even make 1 cup properly. If you want to punish someone give this as a gift.

This is a powdered chai spice, not an instant chai mix, so it requires some preparation. I purchased it under the impression that it was an instant chai that I could simply mix with water for a quick beverage. However, these are ground spices, and a similar mixture can be found for much less at Indian stores. While the spices do add some flavor to the tea, which tastes good, the label "Instant Chai" is misleading. To actually make chai, you need to boil the spices with loose tea or a tea bag and add milk to it. When you look at the picture the container looks quite big but when it came home I was surprised to see how small the container is. Nevertheless, the spices in it are ground well.

Fragrant, delicious spices for your morning Chai. An amazingly small amount suffices for a rich taste in a cup of hot water. A tiny wooden scoop is included to measure the dose.

Nice balanced flavors. This is a good chai, not too peppery.
