Trivia

[Trend] Blend resembles Garam Masala, but lacks cumin/coriander (curry aroma), instead overwhelmingly high in 'dry ginger' and 'cardamom' ratio. With this, even commercial tea bags instantly become Indian street taste.

Eating tips & etiquette

[Unique Usage] Not just sprinkling over piping hot milk tea, but kneading into cookie or pound cake dough and baking to explosively birth exotic 'Chai-flavored baked sweets'!
