Reason I would suggest something like this is he makes esspressos and lattes as well so I said if it would work he'd corner all his tastes.

The last of the Colombian, with 4, very smooth. Most of the lemony is gone.

Well it would work for the espresso and the latte but in order to make it work for the chai it would take a bit of tweaking. The machine uses the Nespresso capsule system and they don't sell chai tea. However, they do have fillable re-usable capsules that you can put anything in so it'd work for chai tea if he bought those.

I have loved both of my Nespresso machines and this is coming from a guy who used to grind his own beans and use a Gaggia espresso machine so that says something.

This is the one I use.
http://silksoymilk.com/products/silk-creamer

It's not the regular Silk Drink. It's a creamer for coffee. Tastes just like 1/2 & 1/2 but much better for you. I think it tastes better than 1/2 & 1/2 personally. I use the Orignal (non flavored) one. I dont want to "change" the flavor of my coffee.

I always felt this way about it and my Brother didn't like it as espresso. I think the Moka Kadir Blend is WAY better

I'll pick some up tomorrow. I use almond milk on my cereal. This may totally end dairy for me...except for yogurt

New coffee! Sumatra Bodhi Leaf Grade A Mandheling Roasted 2 days ago to FC+, drip, splash and dollop (both good). Typical Sumatra, great body, funky earth as it cools. But it's really clean, very nice. Creamy vanilla with chocolate roast tones
From Klatch, recommended as a classic Sumatra.
