Product Information

A spiced espresso drink for breakfast, takeaway and slower mornings

This drink is made for customers who like chai but want more coffee depth. The spice keeps the cup aromatic, the milk rounds it out, and the espresso gives it enough strength to sit beside food.

It works well when you have time to sit down, order something from the cabinet and enjoy a proper drink before heading through Reservoir or Thornbury.

Product Quality

A dirty chai built around spice, espresso and milk texture

A good dirty chai should feel aromatic, smooth and properly balanced from the first sip. The spices need warmth, the tea needs body, the milk should soften the cup, and the espresso should add depth without flattening the chai.

Ingredient quality matters because the drink has several layers. Prana Chai gives the bar a sticky chai reference made for cafes across Australia, Market Lane Coffee brings espresso roasted in Melbourne from Brazil and Colombia with chocolate, macadamia and dried apricot character, and Procal Dairies supports the steamed milk texture with Victorian farm-sourced dairy.
