Tip: If you’re new to chai-style teas, start at 3 minutes, then steep longer next time if you want more spice.
Chai Latte at Home (Aurora Chai):
If you are craving something a little more creamy, consider making a chai latte.
Steep it strong: Brew 2 sachets (or 2 tsp loose leaf) in 8 oz just-boiled water for a bold chai base.

Why These Teas Exist
Alaska Tea Co. grew out of years of ritual living, slow mornings, and time spent in wild places. Each blend is inspired by the landscapes and seasons of Alaska - and created to help you bring a little of that calm into daily life.
These teas are meant to be brewed slowly, sipped intentionally, and returned to again and again.
(Their stories and rituals are shared more fully through Mary’s Mark Alaska, where this philosophy began.)
