Every time I try a new Chai, I feel like a traitor to the last one I tried because it seems like I’m always discovering a new favorite. I guess I’m fickle when it comes to my Chai, but I truly do love them all!
I was super excited to try this Horizon Hot Ginger Green Chai because I am a sucker for ginger, and with a name like hot ginger it has to be good!
The first thing I noticed when the boiling water hit the tea is a wonderful spicy but also roast-y aroma. The smell filled my whole kitchen. And when I tasted the tea, it has an amazing spicy kick, but again this amazing roast-y flavor that I really, really love. It reminded me a little of coffee just in the depth of flavor.
This is definitely not your traditional Chai, but it is absolutely amazing! I want to drink this everyday for the rest of my life.
I imagine this would be a wonderful tea to have when you come home on a very cold day, it would warm you right up!!
This tea does have caffeine, but it’s low caffeine, only 25 milligrams per serving for those like me who try to watch their intake.
This is seriously outstanding tea. Such rich spicy flavor that just wakes your senses. This is of course, my new favorite Chai!
Here’s the scoop!

Outpost Orange Spice Rooibos Chai from Teaoke. . . . .
If you like Rooibos based Chai’s you will most likely enjoy Outpost Orange Spice Rooibos Chai from Teaoke. I recently sipped on this one chilly evening. The spices found in Outpost Orange Spice Rooibos Chai from Teaoke aren’t overly spicy and the taste was a bit heavier on the Rooibos than I was thinking it would be.
I really enjoyed the hints of orange that seemed to be pretty even-steven with the other spices found in Outpost Orange Spice Rooibos Chai from Teaoke. Rooibos, Orange Peel, Cinnamon, Licorice Root, Black Pepper, Clove, Natural Orange, and Cinnamon Flavors are what makes Outpost Orange Spice Rooibos Chai from Teaoke…well…Outpost Orange Spice Rooibos Chai from Teaoke!
I wasn’t really able to pick up on the Licorice Root but to be honest I’m totally ok with that. I don’t think a more intense Licorice flavor would have worked well here. So either they used the RIGHT amount or I just couldn’t taste it but either way I was COOL with it. Outpost Orange Spice Rooibos Chai from Teaoke was WARMING, sweet, and slightly citrus. Not a bad way to end an evening!
