Aldi Simply Nature Organic Chai Tea Latte




I just learned Aldi was selling tea concentrates. My girl friends and I were talking about trying it.  We learned that they come in three flavors-chai tea latte, dirty chai tea latte, and London fog tea latte.  Simply Nature Organic Tea Lattes cost $2.99 for a 32-ounce carton. 

If you are wondering what dirty chai is...it has espresso in it. I am not a fan, but some people love it.  London Fog is Earl Grey tea with lavender in it.

My one friend was sweet enough to get me a container of the Chai Latte for Valentines Day.  I was super excited to try it.  I like my chai lattes iced.  It is simply equal parts chai and equal parts milk, with ice added in.   I used almond, oat, or soy milk in my lattes.

In the Chai latte is black tea, ginger, cardamom, clove, anise and nutmeg



I also am loving my monogrammed glass. I am looking forward to making more at the Wayne College lab.  They have a laser engraver that they let people in the community use for projects.


I enjoyed this concentrate.  It is a bit sweet, so I just put more milk then tea in the glass.   I was able to get the chai notes, but it was more sweet then a spicy chai.


Tea Charcuterie Board




I bought this Charcuterie board at Big Lots on my birthday.



I enjoyed making myself a little treat on my birthday.  This little board is the perfect size for individual serving.  It is fun to use this as a plate.


How fun would it be to have friends over and get them each a board with their initial on it.  They can eat off of it and then take it home as well.  A little thank you for coming over and a fun favor for them to take home.
