Summer is the perfect time to try new things. Most of us have a bit of extra time and we can make good use of it by expanding our horizons! One way we love to do that every year is by traveling.
We like to take at least one “long distance” trip to someplace we have never been, but we also will add in a road trip that keeps us in the state, but lets us see a city or area that is “new to us”. It’s always a fun way to learn and experience new things.
Besides traveling, trying and experimenting with new foods, beverages and flavors is an excellent way to broaden your world and experience new things.
Exploring the foods of other countries and traditions is often the most interesting way to do this.
Have you tried chai? A part of Indian history for 5,000 years, it’sa black tea blend that’s part sweet, part spicy.
Whether you’re already a fan or if chaiwill be one of the new things you try this summer, it’s easy to make withNEW TAZO® Chai Latte K-Cup® pods!

While chai tea may be new to you, it has always been a part of New York Times Bestselling author and host Padma Lakshmi’s life and family heritage.
