I am looking for any instant beverage jar mixes that taste like chai tea.

I have not found the "perfect" chai latte yet, to make at home. I have tasted them all and they all seem weak compared to the local shop call "mt cup", here in muncie indiana. They have the perfect mix of spices and will not tell me how they do it! Using tea bags is not the same :( What suggestions does anyone have? Add spices maybe, if so what and how much can I add to one cup?

I've not found any tea on the market tastes better or not ordinary.
Want to know how to mix Hong Kong style mixture.

The Chai Tea Mix by Cathy is very good. I made it for gift giving.

Chai Tea Gift Mix
1/2 cup nonfat dry milk powder
1/2 cup French vanilla flavored coffee creamer (dry)
3 tablespoons powdered sugar
1/4 cup unsweetened instant tea (dry)
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
Mix all together and place in pretty airtight container and attach these instructions: For each serving, place 3 to 4 heaping teaspoons mix in a cup.
Fill with 8 ounces very hot water.
For creamier chai, use half milk and half water.

I recently saw a recipe for a gift mix for chai tea. It was a mix you could stir into brewed regular tea with spices and dry milk. I lost it before I got to make it and want to give some for Christmas. Anyone?
