This turned out watered down for me. I think next time I make this, I will use my chai tea bags and add the orange to it. I could taste the spices and orange, but it just tasted watered down.

This was really nice. My daughter, 11, and I enjoyed it. It was a nice relaxing drink. The orange was not over powering and the spice was not either.

I enjoyed this. A great substitute for coffee. The orange adds a nice flavor and I also add a few turns of the black pepper grinder for added spice.
