Transparency First

Seven ingredients.
Nothing else.

No sugar. No maltodextrin. No "natural flavors." No silicon dioxide. Just organic tea and spices you can pronounce—and actually want to consume.

Most of our spices — cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, clove, and nutmeg — come from Red Ape Cinnamon, who publishes per-lot heavy-metal test results publicly. Black tea and black pepper are sourced separately. Some chai blends are made from bulk spice sources with limited transparency. We chose a different path.

The Truth About Chai

Not all chai is created equal.

Most instant chai is loaded with sugar, artificial fillers, and mystery ingredients. Here's how we're different.

Café-Proven Recipe
Did You Know?

A sweetened 16 oz café chai latte can carry 30–50 g of sugar. Ours has none. You decide what goes in the cup.

Our Story

It started with a question customers kept asking.

"Where can I get this at home?"

I run Café Meria in Charlevoix, Michigan—a tiny resort town on Lake Michigan. For years, our house chai was the thing people remembered. Not the pastries, not the coffee—the chai.

I tried to find them something. I really did. But every "clean" chai I found was either packed with sugar or tasted like cardboard. So I made it myself.

Same recipe. Same ingredients. Same care. The only difference is you're making it in your kitchen instead of ours.
