Liquid Chai story
The story behind the bottle

A family kitchen on the Sunshine Coast.

Liquid Chai began the way the best things do — in a home kitchen. Mum couldn't find a chai blend that tasted like the real thing, so she made her own. Whole cinnamon quills, fresh ginger, green cardamom, a knowing pinch of Celtic sea salt.

Years later, every bottle is still brewed slowly, in small batches, from that same recipe. No syrups. No powders. No shortcuts. Just real ingredients and the kind of patience that makes a cup of chai feel like a hug.

What's in the bottle

Nine real ingredients. Nothing else.

No fillers, no binders, no syrups, no preservatives. Just whole spices, fresh ginger and organic tea — slow-brewed in filtered water with a knowing pinch of sea salt.

Why slow-brew matters

Real spices. Real time. Real flavour.

Most chai concentrates take shortcuts — syrups, powders, 'natural flavours'. We do the opposite. Every batch is brewed slowly with whole spices, so what you taste is what we put in. Nothing else.

1

Whole spices, sourced

Cinnamon quills, green cardamom pods, cloves, star anise and fresh ginger — chosen for aroma, not just price.

2

Slow-brewed by hand

Steeped low and slow in filtered water. No rush, no shortcuts — that's where the depth comes from.

3

Bottled fresh, small batch

Filled into recyclable glass bottles, sealed and shipped from the Sunshine Coast. That's it. That's the whole recipe.

How to brew at home

A café chai latte in three steps.

1

Shake the bottle

Liquid Chai has no fillers or emulsifiers, so the spices settle naturally. Give it a good shake to wake them up.

2

Pour 15ml into 200ml milk

One tablespoon of chai concentrate into your favourite milk. We love soy or oat — they let the spices sing.

3

Heat gently & sweeten

Warm on the stove (don't boil). Sweeten with raw honey for hot chai, or maple syrup for an iced version.

Tip: for an extra-spicy cup, pour a little more. Liquid Chai is a concentrate, so it scales beautifully.

Good to know

Your chai, answered.

What milk should I use?

Plant-based milks work beautifully — soy and oat are our favourites because they hold the spice notes. Dairy works too. The chai is a concentrate, so any milk you love will pair well.

Is the Caffeine Free blend safe in pregnancy?

The Caffeine Free Rooibos blend is naturally caffeine free and a beautiful choice for pregnant and breastfeeding mums. As always, if you're unsure, check with your healthcare provider.

How long does an opened bottle last?

12 months from opening. No refrigeration needed — in fact we recommend against it, as the cool can cause the natural sediment to harden. Store at room temperature, like next to your coffee machine.

Why is there sediment in the bottle?

Because we use real whole spices and no emulsifiers, fillers or stabilisers — exactly as it should be. A good shake before pouring brings everything back together.

How many cups does one bottle make?

A 200ml bottle makes roughly 13 cups, and a 500ml bottle makes about 33 cups, based on a 15ml serve. Pour a little more for an extra-spicy chai.

Where is Liquid Chai made?

Handcrafted in small batches on the Sunshine Coast, Queensland, by the family who started it all. We're proud to stock them at Spirit of Cacao.
