Big Train Chai Vanilla, 1.9-Pound Cans (Pack of 2)

Yes, this is delicious vanilla chai...the best I've tasted. However, the product description says "99% caffeine-free" and this simply can't be true. I ordered the single-serving packets of this product and the package clearly states the caffeine amount. Each serving actually contains 65mg of caffeine per serving. That's almost as much caffeine as a tall Starbucks espresso-based drink. Almost twice the amount of caffeine in a can of Coke!

If you need the caffeine boost, enjoy! But if you're watching your caffeine intake for whatever reason, be aware!

So it's Chai. If you don't know Chai is a spiced tea. In this case the overtone is vanilla. It's got a little of everything you might get in pumpkin pie spice. It's very tasty. I use two scoops in a twice as large glass and I make it just with hot water. You don't need to add milk. Many of the local coffee bars actually use this brand. You could of course make this whole thing yourself but this is a GREAT alternative. And of course Amazon is a great place to get it. I actually love that they kind of remind me every couple of months to get more because I usually need it.

I love this stuff. I have one of those small individual serving blenders and I love to make Vanilla Chai freezes. I use ice and skim milk and this powder. This brand is great, and you definitely get the most for your money. I used to get Vanilla Chai freezes at Borders for like 3-4 dollars, Starbucks makes frozen Chai's for just under 5. I've also tried Tastefully Simple Chai, but it was really really expensive. It's nice to be able to make it at home whenever I want (which is basically every day!) and it's more cost effective.

Tastes amazingly great. The vanilla flavor is definitely the best, and this chai is probably the best one out there, it comes out on top of my list.

I've tried many different brands of chai over the years and Big Train's Vanilla Chai is one of the best out there. My boyfriend loves it, too! It's the only brand of chai that he'll drink. Plus, you get so many servings for the price and free super saver shipping! One of the gourmet food shops in the mall sells the small pouches of the same chai for $8 and there are only a few servings in the pouch. It is definitely worth stocking up by buying the two can pack that's offered here!
