• Cloves: These tiny spice buds pack a punch, offering a bold, peppery zing that stimulates the senses.
• Star Anise: Adding a touch of licorice sweetness, star anise provides depth and a hint of delicate fennel-like aroma.
• Black Pepper: Grounding the blend, black pepper introduces a subtle heat, elevating the chai’s warmth and spiciness.
