Ways to Brew

With Chai, the journey is as important as the destination...the art of the preparation! Boiling Vastu Chai Traditional Masala and Rooibos Masala, in a pot on the stove fills your home with spicy aroma – at any given time of the day, my home smells like Chai and there is always a pot out on the stove that has been used to make Chai! My morning ritual involves the preparation of Chai with a mantra or pure intention as a start to the day. The blessing and contemplation is passed on to those who share the Chai. VASTU Chai can be prepared in many different ways to suit your mood, the occasion, the time of day or even season. Take time out of your day and savour the experience.
