Gourmandises: Orca Chai

I´ve found a place pretty close to Gourmet Heaven: an all-new supermarket 15 minutes away by car. Edeka Zurheide, for those who live in Dusseldorf or the vicinity. Seriously, I could spend days in there. And supermarket doesn´t describe even 20% of the spectrum they offer. From whole foods to international specialties to coloured sugar. Separate fresh counters for cheese, meat, poultry. A sushi bar. A wine bar. A coffee bar. A bakery. You get the idea, right?

But what really got me was a pillar close to the exit: all stuffed with David Rio Chai Tea. This has to be heaven. Thank God. They don´t ship overseas for individuals, you know...
The only thing I am really regretting is that I didn´t buy the big box, but individual packages because I wanted to try the different flavours. Shame on me. I should have bought the boxes. This one is the Orca Chai. The difference to the Elephant Vanilla Chai I´ve written about before is that it is actually sugarfree. The taste is wonderful, spicy and balanced.


You can prepare it with hot water, or with hot milk. I prefer a mixture of half water and half milk, with a top of milk foam. Unbeatable for cold and rainy afternoons!
