Why Add Chai to Your Café Menu?

Chai gives cafés another beverage option alongside coffee, tea, lattes, and specialty drinks. A premix can make chai preparation more straightforward by providing a formulated chai product that staff can prepare according to a consistent recipe.

Instead of keeping individual tea and spice ingredients on hand for every chai order, cafés can use an instant premix and establish a standard preparation method for their team.

  • Add multiple chai flavours to your beverage menu
  • Use a standardized preparation method
  • Offer chai alongside coffee and other beverages
  • Choose different flavour profiles for your customers
  • Order larger quantities for higher-volume café operations
  • Combine premix with a compatible commercial chai machine where appropriate

How Cafés Can Prepare Chai With Premix

Using a premix allows a café to establish a repeatable chai preparation process for staff.

  1. Choose the Nitan Chai flavour you want to serve.
  2. Follow the preparation instructions provided with the specific product.
  3. Use the recommended quantity of premix and liquid.
  4. Mix thoroughly according to the product instructions.
  5. Serve the prepared chai according to your café's beverage recipe.

The exact preparation method and quantities should always follow the instructions on the product packaging.

Chai Latte for Cafés

Chai premix can also be used as a base for chai latte-style beverages, depending on the product and preparation method.

A café can create a chai latte menu by combining its chai preparation with milk according to its standardized recipe. Hot chai latte and iced chai beverages can provide additional options for customers.

Chai Premix for Small Cafés

For a smaller café, starting with one or two popular chai flavours may be a practical way to introduce chai to the menu.

As your chai sales grow, you can expand the number of flavours or move to larger purchasing quantities.

Chai Premix for High-Volume Cafés

Cafés with higher chai demand may need to consider pack sizes, inventory, storage, preparation workflow, and ordering frequency.

How Much Chai Premix Should a Café Order?

The right quantity depends on your café's chai sales, serving size, number of flavours, and ordering frequency.

A simple approach is to estimate your expected chai servings over your ordering period and then determine how much premix is required using the preparation instructions for your selected product.

It is also useful to maintain enough inventory to cover changes in demand without over-ordering.

Chai Premix for Café Menus

Chai can be offered in several formats depending on your café concept.

  • Hot chai
  • Chai latte
  • Iced chai
  • Flavoured chai
  • Seasonal chai beverages
  • Chai as an alternative to coffee

Use your selected Nitan Chai flavour as the base and create standardized recipes for each drink on your menu.
