Combine a 1 oz. or 0.5 oz. pump of the syrup with flavorings and water (or other liquids) to create custom Lotus energy drinks in whatever flavor combinations you like.
Let's talk chai, shall we? And let's start at the very beginning, with a question a lot of people ask.
What is chai?
Traditionally, chai is a combination of black tea, honey and spices -- a combination that comes with a long and storied history. While it originated in India thousands of years ago, it has also been a well-loved drink in American coffee shops and restaurants for a long time.
