{"product_id":"bright-chai-syrup","title":"Bright Chai Syrup","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis isn't a heavy, brooding chai. Originally launched as Summer Chai for a reason — Bright Chai leans into the lighter end of the spectrum, with citrus-forward Orange Pekoe black tea and warm baking spices (cinnamon, clove, allspice, cardamom) instead of the heavy, peppery masala-style heat you might know from elsewhere. It's chai you'd actually want over ice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's the chai for people who find traditional chai too intense, or for warm-weather drinks where a heavy spice profile would feel like wearing a sweater in July. Stir an ounce into iced oat milk for an unreasonably good iced chai latte, splash it into sparkling water for a chai soda you'll actually finish on a hot day, or use it to add tea-and-spice depth to a brunch cocktail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e citrusy black tea, cinnamon, clove, allspice warmth, light cardamom finish\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Short Version:\u003c\/strong\u003e A lighter, brighter take on chai — Orange Pekoe black tea brewed with citrus-leaning baking spices instead of heavy peppery heat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIngredients:\u003c\/strong\u003e Filtered water, black tea, ginger, cardamom, cinnamon, cloves, black pepper, \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eallspice, organic cane sugar, ascorbic acid.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePerfect For:\u003c\/strong\u003e People who find traditional chai too heavy, summer-iced-latte regulars, brunch-cocktail makers, and anyone looking for chai-without-the-weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBest Enjoyed In:\u003c\/strong\u003e Iced chai lattes (1 oz syrup + 6 oz oat milk), dirty chais (add a shot of espresso), summer chai sodas (1 oz + 6 oz sparkling water), or bright cocktails with light rum, gin, or bourbon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Portland Syrups Promise:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ethically sourced, carefully brewed, and bottled in glass jars right here in SE Portland, Oregon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eGet Inspired\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA refreshing iced \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/beveragemixers.com\/blogs\/news\/chai-on-ice\"\u003eChai on Ice\u003c\/a\u003e for warm-weather chai cravings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA bright, summery \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/beveragemixers.com\/blogs\/news\/summer-daze-mocktail\"\u003eSummer Daze Mocktail\u003c\/a\u003e that leans into the citrus side\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA barista-style \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/beveragemixers.com\/blogs\/news\/the-dirty-chai\"\u003eDirty Chai\u003c\/a\u003e for serious coffee-and-chai fans\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: How long does the syrup last after opening?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Our syrups are shelf-stable for 24 months unopened.

Where masala chai leans heavily on black pepper and ginger for heat, Bright Chai foregrounds Orange Pekoe black tea and baking spices — cinnamon, clove, allspice, cardamom — for a softer, brighter profile. It originally launched as \"Summer Chai,\" which is still the easiest way to describe its character: chai that works just as well over ice in July as in a hot mug in January.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Can I use Bright Chai syrup in hot coffee or milk?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Yes — that's its primary use. Stir ½ to 1 oz into hot or iced milk (dairy or oat) and you've got a chai latte. Add a shot of espresso and you've made a dirty chai. It also works beautifully stirred straight into hot coffee when you want a little spice without committing to a full latte.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Portland Syrups","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54127046033718,"sku":"00861523002687","price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0968\/0778\/0662\/files\/Bright_Chai_new.png?v=1781646471","url":"https:\/\/gatherandset.com\/products\/bright-chai-syrup","provider":"Gather \u0026 Set","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
