Since my last post, I’ve had recent dietary changes. I started doing the AIP Diet with my mom (if you’re not familiar with the diet, click here to learn more). I plan on doing a post about the whole process at a later date. This elimination diet requires you to cut out just about anything that could cause inflammation. In doing so, I had to cut out my very favorite drink – Chai Lattes. So since I haven’t had one in 20 days, this post is an Ode to Chai Lattes, and my absolute favorite brand of mix – Kilogram Chai.

WHAT IT IS: Kilogram Tea Organic Masala Chai Concentrate is THE most perfect chai concentrate. Completely organic and has a fantastic combination of flavors and the perfect ratios of each flavor and spice. I used to grab my Chai Lattes from Starbucks until I realized there’s 42 grams of sugar in it. Kilogram chai only has 12 grams in one serving!

WHY IT’S GOOD FOR YOU: Like I said above, this has 1/4 of the sugar that the Starbucks version has in it. All the ingredients are organic as opposed to Starbucks which lists “natural flavors” as one of its ingredients. I personally think this is a phenomenal treat yourself option that’s still mildly okay on your body.

WHY IT’S GOOD FOR THE EARTH: It comes in a box! Easy to recycle and easy to store. Much better than a plastic container.

OTHER HIGHLIGHTS

• The ratio on the box says 3:1. I do a little more chai so it’s not so milky. I fill my VAVA Milk Frother up to the max line, froth it up while my chai is heating up in the microwave or stove, and mix them together. It’s a complete delight.

• I purchased my box at Standard Market but you can easily find it on their website.

Enjoy for me, please!
