Bon Appetit Magazine Highly Recommend The story of Chai Spice Peanut & Almond Butter starts with the 2012 wedding of our co-founders, Mark and Megan. Mark invented the concept of a nut butter blended with chai spices as a fusion of some of his favorite things (nuts) and Megan’s (masala chai tea). Our Chai Spice Peanut & Almond Butter combines American agriculture in the form of High-Oleic Runner peanuts and heirloom Mission almonds with traditional tea spices of the Indian subcontinent, where “chai” is simply a word for “tea” in Hindi. Like gumbo in Louisiana or peach pie in Georgia, there are as many spiced tea recipes in India Thinking about our mini 3oz jars? They are perfect for traveling (TSA-approved), sampling, or gifting!
