I used to think that coffee shop baristas were on a level that paralleled wizardry. When they went behind their counters they made caffeine magic. However I have gotten to a point where I acknowledge that this is not entirely the case. I've discovered that many coffee shops instead of creating their own chai blends simply invest in large quantities of Oregon Chai, which then then mix with steamed milk: a far cry from magic. After I realized that my campus coffee establishments were some of the culprits that outsource their magic to oregon I stopped buying their chai lattes for a while, and subsisted off london fog alone when I needed milk to accompany my tea. Yet I couldn't stay away for long. As much as it pains me to say Oregon Chai is a splendid beverage. I am still eternally grateful to coffee shops that make their own chai blends but I'll try not to complain too much.
