Best Chai for Fall With Cozy Tea Picks for Cooler Weather

Chai for Fall at a Glance

We covered two Leely Chai blends in 2024 as warming options for cooler weather: a black-tea masala chai and a caffeine-free rooibos blend. The main difference was whether you wanted the stronger black-tea base or a caffeine-free cup.

Leely Chai 10 Spice Masala Chai

The Leely Chai 10 Spice Masala Chai combined black tea with a ten-spice blend. Ginger, cinnamon and black pepper were among the flavors that stood out. We liked it best prepared on the stovetop so the tea and spices had time to steep together.

Chai Love Caffeine-Free

Chai Love used rooibos instead of black tea, making it the caffeine-free option in the pair we reviewed. Its flavor leaned sweeter and softer, with vanilla and warm-spice notes.

Milk and Preparation

Both blends worked with dairy milk as well as oat or soy milk in our testing. Milk choice changes the texture and flavor, so this is mostly a matter of preference rather than a single correct way to make chai.
