Authentic. Bold. Fresh. Crafted by Chef Tushar Tondvalkar.
Brewed in small batches and stored refrigerated for freshness, our unsweetened chai concentrate brings you the bold, aromatic character of Mumbai’s cutting chai.

Posted on Banu RajannaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My first encounter with Indian Pantry’s Goan Vindaloo masala was during a camping trip this summer, and it left a lasting impression. After that, I also tried their garam masala, and I’ve been a hooked to it ever since. The vindaloo masala isn’t just great with potatoes—I’ve used it with a variety of vegetables, and it always delivers a wonderful flavour. Their spices are fresh and well-balanced. I have heard great reviews about their chai masala and Bengali masala too, although I haven’t tried due to personal dietary preferences. I would truly recommend the Indian Pantry masala for anyone who want to try and enhance their cooking with genuine Indian flavours.Posted on Vinod HegdeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently tried several products from The Indian Pantry Foods Inc in Vancouver, and I’m so impressed! The Goan Vindaloo and Makhani sauces made cooking effortless and tasted authentic. Their spice blends—especially Garam Masala and Malvani Masala—are incredibly aromatic, and the Cutting Chai Masala is perfect for tea lovers. Everything feels fresh, high-quality, and thoughtfully made. I even gifted their products to colleagues for the holidays, and everyone was blown away by the flavors! Definitely my go-to for real Indian taste. 5 stars!Posted on madhura bhatTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The Indian Pantry products are amazing. I am a big fan of the brand and have been using them on daily basis from last couple of months. Their Vindaloo sauce is so good, it’s solid, flavourful and has an amazing texture when cooked with Paneer and Tofu. Their other sauces and spices are also great. They are easy to make and tasty. It can be your best Holiday Gift option for your Friend an and Family. Their packaging is beautiful with a small recipe book inside which makes it even more special. I also personally feel that they are fairly priced. Overall it’s a very good product and pocket friendly, I would highly recommend it to anyone willing to explore something new this Holiday season.Posted on Girish AnanthanarayanaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. If you’re on the hunt for something bold but comforting, their Goan Vindaloo –inspired pasta is a revelation. This inventive mash‑up starts with The Indian Pantry’s Goan Vindaloo Simmering Sauce—a tangy, spicy masterpiece that delivers tomato, vinegar, garlic, ginger, and warming spices in every spoonful. What hits first is a sharp, sour tang tempered with slow‑building heat—vibrant, layered, and utterly addictivePosted on Navin PuthranTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I used this Goan Vindaloo Masala to make prawn curry, and it turned out really good. The masala has a fresh aroma and a well balanced spice level. It gives the curry a very authentic Goan taste without being overpowering. Its easy to use and makes homemade curry taste restaurant style. What I really liked is how easy it is to use just throw in onions and tomatoes, saute them, add the masala, and you are almost done. Overall, the flavors are rich and slightly tangy, which goes perfectly with prawns.Posted on Bharat joshiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We love spicy Indian food, and when it comes to making it quickly and effortlessly, one name always comes to mind: The Indian Pantry Foods. All of their sauces and masalas are excellent, but the Vindaloo Sauce/Masala is truly outstanding. We have purchased Vindaloo, Garam, Bengali, and several other masalas, including Chai Masala, from them many times, and every one has been consistently high in quality. The Vindaloo stands out, but the others are equally impressive and the packages even include simple recipes for quick dishes for convenience. We highly recommend The Indian Pantry Foods Inc.Posted on lindsay spenceTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

I’m always looking for where they’ll be next to pick up another bottle of the chai concentrate to go 🤤 I’m obsessed with this company; if you love chai, you have to give them a try!Posted on Ankish JainTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Our chai is crafted by Chef Tushar Tondvalkar, Culinary Director of The Indian Pantry, and one of Vancouver’s leading Indian chefs. Trained in top kitchens and Michelin-star restaurants, he brings a deep understanding of regional Indian flavors to every single batch.
That expertise is reflected in every bottle. From the careful balance of spice to the depth of the black tea, Chef Tushar’s precision turns chai into a warm, bold, authentic experience—far more thoughtful than anything mass-produced.
Our ingredient list is short, clean, and intentional: Distilled water, chai spice (dried ginger, cinnamon, green cardamom, black pepper, cloves, nutmeg, mace), and black tea. Each spice plays a role in shaping the depth and warmth of our chai.
Ginger and cinnamon add gentle heat, sweetness, and instant comfort.
Green cardamom brings that classic floral, fragrant chai heart.
Black pepper and cloves add depth, balance, and a subtle kick.
Nutmeg, mace, and strong black tea create a smooth, bold, and beautifully rounded chai.

Yes, our chai concentrate is fully unsweetened, which means you have complete control over the sweetness level. You can enjoy it as a light, aromatic chai or customise it using sugar, honey, jaggery, or any sweetener you prefer. The unsweetened base also makes it versatile for iced chai & lattes, where you may need to adjust sweetness separately.
Yes, it is completely gluten-free. This makes it suitable for people with gluten sensitivities or anyone who prefers clean and simple ingredients. You can mix it with dairy or any plant-based milk knowing that the flavour remains pure, smooth, and easy on the stomach. It’s crafted to work well with a wide range of diets without compromising taste.
Since the concentrate contains no preservatives, it is best stored in the refrigerator once opened. For optimal taste and freshness, we recommend using it within 20 days. The flavour stays strong and aromatic during this time, giving you a consistent chai experience as long as it stays sealed and chilled.
Yes, the concentrate has zero calories because it contains only brewed spices and tea without any added sugars or fillers. This makes it a great option if you want flavour without adding extra calories to your day. You can pair it with low-fat milk, oat milk, or even water for a light, satisfying drink that fits easily into calorie-conscious lifestyles.
You can make almost any chai drink you love—hot chai, iced chai, chai lattes, dirty chai (with a shot of espresso), or even a cold foam chai topper. Because it adds no calories on its own, you can adjust the richness using the milk or sweetener of your choice. It’s also great for smoothies or lighter desserts where you want flavour without heaviness.
