I love the flavor of chai. The warming spices have a calming effect and support great digestion and liver detoxification. And, combining the chai spices with raw cacao takes it to another level. I love using dates or date syrup to sweeten drinks. It's a luxurious sweetener and provides potassium, b vitamins, and fiber (to name a few of the nutrients). Because of the nutritional profile, dates also support healthy digestion. I love to use Simply Organic spices, which are the highest quality and sustainably sourced. (And, at the Feed Feed event with Simply Organic, I learned that the Simply Organic offices are moving to be zero waste!).
