Chai tea, often simply referred to as "chai," has its roots in India, where it has been enjoyed for centuries. Originally known as "masala chai," this flavorful brew combines black tea with a blend of spices and herbs. The warm and comforting flavors of chai have a deep cultural significance, representing hospitality, connection, and tradition.

How many cups of tea can I steep from 1oz of loose leaf tea?
The number of 8oz cups you can steep from 1 oz of loose leaf tea varies depending on the type of tea and the strength of the brew desired, but a general guideline is that 1 oz of loose leaf tea can make approximately 10 to 15 cups of tea. Typically, 1 teaspoon of loose leaf tea (about 2-3 grams) is used per 8oz cup of water. Since 1 oz is approximately 28 grams, this means you can steep roughly 10 cups if you use 2.8 grams per cup, or closer to 14-15 cups if you use slightly less tea per cup. Multiple steepings of high-quality loose leaf teas can further increase the number of cups you can brew from the same leaves.
