Dona Chai Unsweetened Chai Concentrate 16oz Two-Pack — Small-Batch, Sugar-Free

Dona Unsweetened Chai Concentrate is a small-batch, barista-approved liquid masala chai concentrate made from freshly ground whole spices and organic black tea, with no sugar added.

Handcrafted in Brooklyn and brewed in limited batches, this unsweetened chai concentrate blends single-origin black tea with freshly ground cardamom, cinnamon, cloves, black peppercorn, and cold-pressed ginger. Designed for home baristas and food artisans, the 16oz two-pack delivers a consistent, spice-forward base that mixes easily with milk, milk alternatives, or recipes where you want complete control over sweetness.

How is this chai concentrate made and why does that matter?

Dona grinds whole spices fresh for every batch and slow-steeps them with organic loose-leaf black tea to extract layered flavor without relying on added sugars. The ginger is cold-pressed to preserve brightness and prevent early oxidation, so the blend keeps vibrant aromatics and sharper spice notes.

• Whole spices ground per batch for maximum freshness and depth
• Slow-steeped small-batch brewing for consistent flavor
• Cold-pressed ginger retains brightness and natural enzymes
• No sugar added — control sweetness when you mix

How do I prepare a cup or latte with this concentrate?

Mix the concentrate with hot milk or a plant-based alternative for a classic chai latte: start with a 1:1 ratio and adjust to taste. For iced chai, combine concentrate with cold milk and ice, or dilute with water for a lighter tea and add sweetener if desired.

• Suggested starting ratio: 1 part concentrate to 1 part milk (adjust to preference)
• For iced chai: stir concentrate into cold milk, add ice, and sweeten if wanted
• Use water instead of milk for a lighter, tea-forward cup
• Works as a flavor booster in smoothies, baking, and cocktails

What flavors and aromas will I notice in each sip?

The profile balances warm sweet spice and bright heat: cinnamon and vanilla-like notes round the midpalate, cardamom adds floral lift, cloves and black peppercorn contribute warming depth, and cold-pressed ginger provides a clean, zesty finish. The organic black tea gives body and tannic structure without overpowering the spices.

• Top notes: green cardamom and cold-pressed ginger for brightness
• Heart: cinnamon bark and vanilla-like warmth
• Base: cloves, black peppercorn, and full-bodied black tea
• No added sugar — pure spice and tea flavor

How should I store and how long will it stay fresh?

Keep unopened bottles in a cool, dark pantry; refrigerate after opening and use within the timeframe printed on the label for best flavor. Because each bottle is made in small batches with fresh-ground spices, flavor is most vibrant when consumed within a few weeks after opening.

• Store unopened in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight
• Refrigerate immediately after opening
• Use within the label-recommended period for peak freshness
• Shake gently before use to re-suspend spices
