Ok so we may have to forgo the pumpkin pie for now but we can have chai tea brewed with skim milk and sweetened with splenda or stevia. It has all those great flavors and aromas of pumpkin pie and is sooo healthy and satisfying. Brands are important I have found...my fav is Good Earth. Sometimes you can find their vanilla chai tea. If you have never had it...you are missing out on a must try simple pleasure. Anyone else love Chai :drinker:

    I love Starbucks Chai, but all of the sugars and what not loaded into it, I just can't get them anymore.

    How do you take a hot tea and ice it (with milk too!! :smile: ) without losing the flavor all together?

    I would know of 2
    1 brew it stronger and then add ice
    2 brew it the night bevore and put it in the fridge
    I like a lot of herbal teas, they are like fruit juice but without the carbs, no teein to keep you up and if you like them sweet you could use splenda or whatever you like

    To make it cold and healthy...heat 4 oz of milk til it is steaming either in a pot or in microwave.
    Dip tea bag into cup repeatedly and then let brew 3 min. Add 1/2 cup ice, splenda and blend...I use magic bullet. Use the Good Earth vanilla chai bags for cold chai...you WON'T be disappointed.
