Our signature and best-selling Chai is a creamy, rich tasting black tea, enlivened with the exotic bite of freshly ground spices, including cardamom, cloves, cinnamon, and ginger. Each year, a percentage of profits from the sale of David Rio Tiger spice Chai are donated to the International fund for animal welfare. At David Rio, we make Chai because we are inspired by traditional Indian milk tea, and we set out to blend Eastern traditions with Western style to create America’s premier Chai. For centuries in India, “Chai Wallahs” have been brewing Chai from black tea and real spices, then adding milk and honey to the final preparation. Inspired by them and Western Café culture, our goal is to establish a premium product using high-quality ingredients with a rich, well-balanced taste, in a unique and attractive package. Chai is the perfect median between coffee and tea, earning its rightful place on Café menus, and David Rio is the premier Chai known worldwide as well as at home.
