Amsterdam Hippie Soymilk Chai image

Normally Chai has tea in it, but this beverage doesn't miss it at all. When I lived in Holland, this drink was a staple in the diet of a bunch of hippies who lived in and around a squatted building known as 'De Elf.' Sadly, the building was closed a year after I left the country, but if you combine the taste of this drink with the smell of musky smoke and Nag Champa incense, you're halfway to recreating the atmosphere. Enjoy...

Overall, I thought this chai was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

This chai was a bit too expensive for my taste. I think I could find a cheaper recipe that tastes just as good.

This chai was a bit too watery for my taste. I think it would be better with more milk.

I'm not a big fan of the spices in this chai. I think it would be better with a more subtle flavor.
