Drink Me Skinny Chai Latte 250 g (Pack of 3)

I find their "full fat" chai latte to be far too sweet, and this skinny version much nicer. Only issue is it's quite hard to mix the powder to a smooth consistency. Here''s what I do:1. Put the kettle on.2. Fill a 450ml mug 2/3rds full off semi skimmed milk and heat in microwave for 2 minutes at 850 watts.3. Meanwhile put 3 fairly heaped 5ml teaspoons of powder in another mug, add a splash of hot water and mix to a paste. Then add more water to make a concentrate.4. When the milk is hot, froth it up with an Aerolatte or equivalent, then stir in the mixed up chai concentrate. Use a bit of extra hot water to rinse the last of the chair into the milk.

Unfortunately this 'Skinny' version does not live up to the standard/taste of it's regular alternative. Having compared both there is actually very little difference in the calories between the two products. However this one tastes a bit synthetic and no way near as creamy or indulgent. Also I found that it didnt dissolve very well in the hot water or hot milk (tried both and a combination of the 2) so maybe the reason its a skinny blend is because you actually ingest less of it and leave more of the flavouring granules at the bottom of the mug(?). I rate the chai latte regular product from DrinkMe 5 stars as it competes with a coffee shop drink when frothy half milk / half water is used, however this is not anywhere near that quality or taste. For the really minimal difference in calories I'd go for the regular version instead every time and maybe just consider having it less often or just having a slightly smaller mug full. So 2 stars as I didnt like it (One star for me means undrinkableand straight in the bin) but i did use all of this product and just wouldn't buy it again even if they didn't have the other version.

takes some work to get out the lumps, but nice

Dont recommend it, Its really spiced up to give the punch of the original chai latte.

Nice drink but the dregs are nasty! Good full flavour and not too bad for cals

Lovely warming drink with cinnamon and ginger. This skinny version is less sweet than the original and really tasty. Great change from normal tea, coffee or chocolate. Recommended.

Too light in quality

More spiced/almost peppery and less creamy than other chai latte powders, makes a less thick drink and is lower in calories. Really nice in porridge too
