June 7, 2021June 7, 2021 Anca

Karak Chai is a strong tea made in Qatar. I made it with dairy milk back in 2019, but, as I stopped drinking dairy milk last year, I thought I should update the posts to reflect that change. The vegan version is delicious, well worth trying. Karak Chai is a very popular drink and it

I bought all of them. This is made by a vegan company, in Thailand, where they are producing the coconuts too. You can check their
