preparing chai tea?

i recently bought the sampler pack of tazo teas which included two different types of chai teabags. i've only had chai tea lattes, which have milk, and chai tea with milk in it.

Tazo is an interesting company that makes only super premium teas. They are socially responsible, based in Portland, and have the motto, “The Reincarnation of Tea”. Tazo is owned by Starbucks.
