Traditional Indian Chai Making Experience | Melbourne CBD Rooftop
Step into the comforting world of authentic Indian chai and discover the traditions behind one of the world’s most loved beverages. Set in an exclusive private rooftop space on Level 32 in the heart of Melbourne CBD, this unique experience combines culture, flavour, and breathtaking views of the Melbourne skyline and the Yarra River.
Whether you’re looking for a memorable date idea, a unique experience to share with family, or a relaxing catch-up with friends, this workshop offers the perfect setting to slow down, connect, and enjoy the simple pleasure of a perfectly brewed cup of chai.
During this interactive 90-minute experience, you’ll learn the art of preparing traditional Indian chai from scratch using authentic techniques passed down through generations. Discover how different herbs and aromatic spices each bring their own unique flavours, aromas, and character to every cup.
Experiment with a selection of traditional ingredients including cardamom, cinnamon, cloves, ginger, fennel, black pepper, star anise, and more, while creating a chai blend that perfectly suits your own taste.
As your chai gently brews, take in the spectacular rooftop views, relax in a welcoming atmosphere, and immerse yourself in the rich traditions and stories behind India’s beloved tea culture.
To complete the experience, you’ll enjoy your freshly brewed chai alongside a selection of complimentary house-made cookies, carefully prepared to pair beautifully with the warm spices of your tea.
Before you leave, you’ll receive a take-home chai kit containing the same premium tea and spice blend you explored during the class, so you can recreate your favourite cup of traditional Indian chai in the comfort of your own home.
