LCurator note · Drink Me Chai
The flagship the rest of the range spins off: the original spiced chai latte, cinnamon-cardamom-ginger warmth in an instant powder that froths into a cafe-style cup in under a minute, no machine, no saucepan. This is the benchmark, the chocolate, vanilla, apple and dirty versions are all variations on this. It contains real tea, so there is caffeine. Convenience over purism, obviously, but as a quick everyday chai latte at home it is genuinely good and the sensible place to start before trying the flavoured spins.

About this tea
Drink Me Chai Spiced Chai Latte, in brief.
Drink Me Chai Spiced Chai Latte is the original masala chai instant latte powder from Drink Me Chai, the UK brand owned by founder Amanda Hamilton and the DMC team, the standard masala chai latte format that the rest of the Drink Me Chai range is built around, picked into the Teas.co.uk curator selection as the easy-make alternative to brewing a proper bagged chai and frothing milk separately.
The base is the standard Drink Me Chai recipe of black tea extract, the four-spice quartet of cinnamon, cardamom, ginger and cloves, and milk powder for the latte texture, without the chocolate or vanilla or coffee variants that distinguish the rest of the range. Spoon two heaped teaspoons into a mug, add hot water and stir, the powder dissolving in seconds to give a frothy spiced-chai cup that compares well to the coffee-shop chai latte for a fraction of the price per serve and works at home morning or evening.
A 250g household pouch at an accessible price compared to the coffee-shop chai latte at the local cafe, the original spiced-chai cup in the Drink Me Chai line and the recipe against which the chocolate, dirty, vanilla and apple-pie siblings are measured, a sensible household pouch for the daily masala chai latte at home.
Drink Me Chai Spiced Chai Latte is perfect for those seeking to integrate a touch of cafe style luxury into a modern daily routine. This award winning flagship infusion captures the heart of traditional South Asian spices while providing the convenience of an instant blend. It is the definitive choice for the drinker who views their tea break as a dedicated ritual for restorative comfort and sensory indulgence. It is the perfect choice for the individual who views their daily treat as a vital component of a productive 2026 lifestyle.

Curator’s notes
Read the full write-up
By marrying the aromatic depth of chai tea with a professional dairy framework, Drink Me Chai has created a spiced latte that serves as a liquid sanctuary. The absence of synthetic fillers ensures a clean palate and a nutrient dense
The Story Behind the Drink Me Chai
Drink Me Chai was created in 2007 by Amanda Hamilton Stubber and Adam Hamilton Stubber, husband and wife founders who had spent time travelling India and noticed that the proper spiced chai they'd had in Mumbai was almost impossible to find in the UK. They started blending small batches in their kitchen in Yorkshire and have since grown into the UK's best known chai latte brand, still family owned today.
