Order the Chai Tea at These Places in the Twin Cities
Few things are better on a cold winter day than a cup of chai. That perfect combination of tea, milk, cinnamon, and aromatic spices will warm you right up. With National Hot Tea Month coming up in January, we thought it'd be a good opportunity to point out that the Twin Cities has some great local tea shops. If you're out and about this winter, here is a quick list of places you can order a delicious chai:
- Sencha Tea Bar - 2601 Hennepin Ave. S, Minneapolis, MN 55408
Sencha Tea Bar calls itself the "premier frontier" for loose leaf tea in Minneapolis, so it's a great place to grab a cup of chai. Not only is tea served on-site, but you'll also find a large selection of tea to purchase as well as tea kits, merchandise, and more. If you need a snack, delicious baked goods are also available.
