Story Behind This Chai

On Punjab’s bustling highways, chai isn’t just a drink — it’s the heartbeat of every dhaba — rustic roadside eateries known for their hearty food, open kitchens, and warm hospitality. Served in steel tumblers, poured piping hot, and brewed strong enough to wake tired travelers, it’s chai with character.

Our Punjabi Masala Chai celebrates that tradition with Assam CTC and eight real spices — from fiery ginger and sweet cinnamon to ajwain’s herbal punch. It’s bold, full-bodied, and deeply satisfying — a true tribute to Punjab’s warmth and spirit.

YOU ASKED WE ANSWERED

What do you mean by CTC tea?

CTC stands for Crush, Tear, Curl — a method used to process black tea leaves into small, hard pellets. This style of tea produces a stronger, brisker brew that pairs perfectly with milk and spices, making it ideal for authentic Indian chai.

What is Masala Chai?

Masala Chai is India’s signature spiced tea — a mix of strong black tea and aromatic spices like cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, cloves, and black pepper, brewed with milk and sugar for a warm, comforting cup.

What gives this chai its unique flavor?

This chai’s strength comes from Assam CTC tea blended with eight authentic Indian spices — from ginger and cinnamon to ajwain and black cardamom. Together, they create a cup that’s robust, smoky, and deeply spiced — a true dhaba-style experience.

What makes this chai “Punjabi”?

Its boldness and spice intensity. The addition of ajwain and black cardamom gives it a signature Punjabi depth — hearty, aromatic, and invigorating.

How is this chai different from other flavored chais in the market?

Unlike most masala chais made with artificial essences or minimal spice, our Punjabi Masala Chai uses whole, hand-crushed spices and fresh Assam CTC tea — blended in small batches and vacuum-sealed at source.

The result? Authentic flavor, unmatched freshness, and a strength worthy of Punjab.

Does this chai contain caffeine?

Yes. It contains about 30–50 mg of caffeine per cup, providing a gentle energy boost without being overpowering.

Are there any added flavors or preservatives?

No. This chai is 100% natural, made only with real tea and spices — no artificial colors or flavoring.

When is the best time to enjoy this chai?

Perfect for mornings, chilly evenings, or after meals — when you need warmth, energy, or comfort in a cup.

Why does freshness matter in chai?

Freshness defines the cup. Our teas are vacuum-sealed at source to stay protected from light, oxygen, moisture, and heat, ensuring every sip is as aromatic and flavorful as freshly blended chai.

How do I store my chai to maintain freshness?

Store it in an airtight container, away from light, heat, and moisture. Avoid strong odors, as tea easily absorbs surrounding scents.

Oh my Chai!

I’d never had real chai tea until finding TeaBox had variety boxes. It was so much fun trying the different varieties. Quickly discovered that the Punjabi masala chai was my favorite. The first sip was an absolute flavor explosion. Now my daily cup of Earl Grey has a rival. The scent of spices fills my home with each brewing. Love that this fresh tea is available and can be shipped to me quickly and affordably.

Chai that can refresh my mind

I have been a happy Teabox customer for close to a decade now. Particularly this Punjabi Masala Chai has a unique flavor, because of which just sipping it can refresh my mind and give me much needed energy at any point in time. Just love the taste of it.

Favourite chai tea

This chai (along with the Teabox Assam Chai) is our favourite chai because it is the spiciest and most flavourful.

Wonderful Masala Tea!!!

Wow.. The flavour is so great. Everyone in my family loved it. I'm not a fan of coffee or tea.. Ordered it for my dad. But now I wanna have it everyday. The packaging was fantastic & the delivery was quick. Got free samples too. Thanks a lot. Please keep up the quality and service. Cheers!

Best Tea..

Excellent tea, we loved it.

My favourite chai

I use this masala in my daily cup of chai for its spicy taste and fresh aroma. Absolutely the best masala chai right now in India. The fragrance and freshness of ingredients is unmatched due to the packaging Teabox does.
You can use one or multiple tea spoons of the masala depending on the intensity of taste you want. I use one tea spoon in one cup of tea along with 1.5-2 tea spoons of my normal tea leaf.
My chai cup feels perfect and incomplete without this masala.

Punjabi Chai

Enjoy this as one of my mornings teas, and in a favourite mug makes it perfect! A nice rich full body flavour a great way to start my day, or just to continue my day! Good anytime.

Outstanding 💯

Teabox is just a dream fulfilled. Wonderful tea quality and taste. Also they take utmost care of their customers whether it's about tea quality or the delivery service. Thank you so much
