チリチャイティー

I was skeptical about chilli in my chai, but the heat creeps up slowly and never overpowers the masala. It's become my 4pm ritual when the afternoon slump hits, and I swear it wakes me up faster than a second coffee.

The heat hits right at the back of the throat and then fades into that warm, spiced chai comfort. I've been drinking one mid-afternoon when my energy dips, and it genuinely does the trick without making me jittery. Even the steam smells like a proper masala blend.

Brewed a cup after work today and that chilli warmth hit just right, loosening up my shoulders before I even finished it. The spice is noticeable but not overpowering, and the masala base keeps it smooth enough to sip slowly. Definitely my new go-to for unwinding.
