The Chai Box- A Steeped Journey from Heritage to Cup
Calling all Chai tea lovers! One rule all tea drinkers must know and remember is that Chai means tea in Hindi, so to say “Chai-Tea” is like saying “Tea Tea”. I’m sure our friends at The Chai Box have heard “Chai Tea” countless of times. Meet Monica Sunny, the soul behind the blends, whose childhood memories of chai's warm embrace led to the creation of this aromatic haven.
In Monica's childhood, chai was more than a beverage; it was a daily ritual that painted her childhood with warmth. Growing up in an Indian household, she took her first sip at the tender age of two. By 12, she was already blending teas, guided by the rich tapestry of her family's chai tradition. The journey of The Chai Box began with a desire to instill the love of chai and a family tradition of chai time. As a mother of three boys, Monica aimed to create not just a brand but a cherished family ritual. What started as a humble sharing of their chai ritual with family and friends blossomed into The Chai Box.
The magic of The Chai Box lies in its spices, meticulously handpicked from the farms of Kerala, India. From the robust Cardamom to the fragrant Rose Petals, these spices tell a story of quality, authenticity, and a deep connection to nature and for Monica, chai isn't confined to a cup; it's a lifestyle. Sharing recipes like Chai Ice Cream and Lavender Chai Macarons, she brings the essence of chai into kitchens worldwide, making it a part of daily life.
The warm story behind The Chai Box is an invitation to savor more than just the flavors of chai; it's an opportunity to step into a world where each blend is a chapter, and every sip is a connection to tradition. The Chai Box isn't just a brand; it's a woman-owned one, it’s Monica's ode to her roots, an aromatic journey through India, and a celebration of family rituals. As you indulge in the rich, handcrafted blends, you're not just enjoying chai; you're partaking in Monica Sunny's legacy—one cup at a time. #TheChaiBoss
