Update: I have now tried the 50/50 mix of Chai and Original and, IMO, it tastes better than either the Chai or the Original straight out of the bottle. It adds some flavor to the otherwise painfully bland Original while diluting the painfully aromatic Chai. It's a really decent compromise. I still don't love the chai flavor, but a hint of it isn't a bad thing. The prospect of drinking a whole case of Chai is no longer filling me with mild dread. That said, going forward, I will only be buying the Cacao flavor...I sincerely enjoy that stuff. Or maybe Soylent will continue to come out with other flavors. Could I suggest Oatmeal & Cinnamon Apple, guys?

I bought a case of Cafe Chai 2.0 to add some variety to my work stash. It's OK. I've not ever drunk chai before, but this is QUITE flavorful, with the tastes of spices (e.g., cinnamon, cardamom, nutmeg, ginger, etc.) just bursting into your mouth. If you like a lot of flavor and you like this chai's combination, you're in for a treat. Otherwise, I think I'll keep these just to break up the monotony of Cacao, but I'll try a 50/50 mix of Chai and Original. That could be interesting.

One side benefit of the Cafe series: caffeine. Since I don't drink coffee or tea and I swore off soda pop nearly a decade ago, the only caffeine I get is the trace amounts in chocolate. So this was a nice pick-me-up today.
