The Eldest was going to order a Lah-Di-Dah (fancy beverage) from Starbucks She asked if I wanted something. My little, guilty pleasure from Starbucks is the Chai Tea Latte.
Silly, tautological name. Because Chai means tea. So it's a Tea Tea Latte and somehow they know to throw in spices like black pepper, cardamom, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, vanilla and lots of sugar with foamy milk. You can order it hot or iced. I don't like it iced. Those warm spices just don't taste tight to me.
Anyway, she got me a Grande (medium size) Chai Tea Latte on her dime!

Cute mugs and tea sounds great, too! Have a happy T-Day.
ReplyDeleteIt was delicious. Like Gluhwein, but for tea!
DeleteMy guilty pleasure is a chai tea latte too. I don't usually go to Starbucks. Hope it was warm and tasty and you enjoyed every drop of it. Happy T day, the rest of 2025 and the start to 2026. Stay warm too. That wind is a whipping.
ReplyDeleteI'm staying in. Nice and warm today. The winds are brutal. You stay warm, too
DeleteCheerful mugs, and hot drinks are always a pleasure when it's cold outside.
ReplyDeleteAnd this is such a decadent beverage
DeleteWhat a nice treat!
ReplyDeleteEspecially on her dime
DeleteVente Skinny Caramel Macchiato.. Upside Down with a little bit of Whip.... lol Love me the VERY occasional La Di Dah StarBucks... Usually when we are leaving early on a trip or something... I've never tried your tea... So nice your daughter got you a yummy treat.. Hugs! deb
ReplyDeleteThat's a big gulp
DeleteCute mugs! Oh tea sounds so good right now. :) Wishing you all the best for 2026! Have a very happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteThank you
DeleteChai Tea Latte does sound a bit silly, you're absolutely right, but if you like the taste, that's fine. The recipe sounds really nice and reminds me of our first trip to India... and the mugs and paper cups are a perfect color for Christmas. Thanks for sharing your Niagara story with me 😊!
ReplyDeleteI wish you and all your loved ones (both two-legged and four-legged) a happy, enjoyable, and healthy New Year!
🎇🍀🐞✨

I love the Chai Tea Latte so cozy during the Winter months
DeleteI keep asking myself why I never go to Starbucks. I would like to try those drinks. It’s not even far to the nearest one. But it never occurs to me.
ReplyDeleteMaybe treat yourself one day
DeleteVery cute! Bring a festive smile to your face! #TforTuesday
ReplyDelete😊
DeleteI love the chai tea latte too! Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteYou have good taste
DeleteI don't have a Starbucks near. I think the nearest would be Malaga Airport, a three hour drive if not more. I once had a coffee there. It was the price of a three course meal in our town and it was so sweet, I couldn't drink it! (I had to leave it..) So I don't think I'd go there again.... Not even for a la-di dah.
ReplyDeleteNice mugs though.
Happy T-Day and Happy 2026 to you too,
Lisca
Yeah, their stuff is very pricey. Which is why I was happy The Eldest treated
DeleteBelated Happy T Day wishes ...
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
😊
