Summer is finally here, and choosing between indulging at cookouts and being in shape for the beach can be a struggle. In this post, we have a nice solution: an easy chai tea recipe that will help you digest heavier meals (if you happen to pig out) and lose weight. So, you can have your cake and eat it too!

This chai tea recipe is from Kerala, India (my next stop after Coimbatore), and is called Sulaimani Chai. It’s super easy, perfect hot or cold, and it’s good for all seasons (so you can use this during the holidays, too)! Let’s get started.

These bioflavonoid pigments support your health in three important ways: they are antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-carcinogenic.
