Mom: That tea is expensive! Why is it so expensive? Me: Mom, it's certified organic, sustainable, kosher, fair trade Chai-Spice Yerba Mate. That's a synonym for "Made by a small corporation run by hippies on the West coast."
It's actually really good. It doesn't taste like Chai at all, it mostly just adds a little bit of spice and tones down the fish-food taste of Yerba Mate while having the same amount of caffeine and such (I haven't had very good experiences with the taste of straight up Yerba Mate).
uhhg. I still can't wrap my brain around that. I can see why a less mate-y tasting mate would be better, but chai just doesn't seem like the flavour I would add to tone it down.
