SO HOW'D IT GO?
I really like chai, but was disappointed in this. I felt the spices were a little overpowering, and made it a little gritty. I was not fond of the flavor either... maybe it's just the way that I know chai not being authentic, I don't know.
It's a sweet syrup that comes from a cactus. You could use any type of sweetener in place of the agave. Vegans often use agave in place of honey.
forgive me for being an ignorant aussie, i'd love to try this recipe. but what is agave, & what do you do with it?
I love Chai. I love oatmeal. And now I love you for making up this recipe!!
