Let's be fair, baby! October is Fair Trade month.

What does the Fair Trade Certified™ label mean? Well, this label ensures that the entire tea supply chain, from garden to market, has undergone inspection and certification for certain standards of social responsibility. It guarantees that tea workers receive decent working conditions, a fair wage and additional revenue for their communities.

So, when you purchase Fair Trade Certified™ tea, you're helping farmers and their communities. You're contributing to a better world, baby! For more information, go to www.FairTradeCertified.org.

Chai, Baby! is proud to offer a 50% discount on its selection of Fair Trade Certified™ teas during the month of October! Enter FAIR2010 at checkout.

Nothin' like the real thing, baby! Bottled vs. brewed teas

Lots of bottled teas on the market these days! If you're a bottle baby, keep in mind the findings presented this past summer by Dr. Shiming Li at the 240th national meeting of the American Chemical Society in Boston. Dr. Li stated that the polyphenol content of bottled tea beverages is far lower than that of freshly steeped teas. In fact, it would take approximately 20 bottles to receive the benefit of one cup of steeped tea!

This extremely low nutrient content, coupled with the sugars and artificial sweeteners often added to bottled teas, makes us say "ain't nothin' like the real thing, baby!"

The Masala in your Chai

Did you know that the word “chai” simply means “tea”? What many people refer to as “chai” is actually spiced chai: black tea blended with a masala (mixture) of rich, warm, delectable spices.

So, saying “chai tea” is, well, redundant redundant! Enjoy your masala chai, baby!

Are you getting enough water, baby? The hydrating powers of tea!

Are you getting enough water, baby? That hardworking body of yours needs water to transport oxygen to your cells, move nutrients to your organs and regulate your body temperature. Common knowledge dictates about 8 glasses of water per day, more if you are engaging in additional activity, flying in an airplane or living in an arid climate.

What's that baby? 8 glasses of water too boring for you? Not to fear! Substitute a few of those glasses for cups of delicious, all natural tea. The National Drinks Survey, cited in the European Journal of Clinical Nutrition, suggests that consumption of normal tea has an overall hydrating effect on the body. So, drink up, baby!
