Where to Find Fresh Chai in the Twin Cities | Eater Twin Cities

"Helmed by chef Saujanya Shrestha and his wife Nadine Schaefer in a renovated Victorian‑style house in Uptown Minneapolis, Namaste Cafe uses a proprietary blend of three types of black tea from eastern Nepal as a base and layers cardamom and cinnamon with clove, ginger, star anise, vanilla, black pepper, nutmeg, and fennel to make an exceptional masala chai; customers can choose whole milk, oat, almond, or soy, and the team recently started Chiya Chai — available in masala, ayurveda masala, sugar‑free masala, and ginger‑cardamom varieties — for those who want to take a growler of their blend home." - Ali Elabbady
