Whipping up deliciously simple recipes with\nour favourite blends is quickly becoming one of our preferred ways to enjoy our\nbrews. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With this latest recipe, we took what could\u2019ve been a standard soup recipe and replaced the usual spices with the flavours found in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.davidstea.com\/ca_en\/tea\/organic-saigon-chai\/10219DT01VAR004058.html\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Organic Saigon Chai<\/span><\/a>. (This recipe was originally created with Organic David&#8217;s Chai.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our chai teas are made with a diverse mix of ingredients making\nfor special blends that taste like nothing else. Bursting with ginger,\ncinnamon, star anise and cardamom, this chai in particular felt like the\nperfect companion to the earthy goodness of sweet caramelized butternut squash\nand sweet potato. The final result is a silky, smooth soup that\u2019s the perfect\nway to warm up on a chilly fall day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pro tip: switch out the regular milk for coconut milk for a vegan soup. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"535\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.davidstea.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Li_Sylvie_DT_Soupe_Twitter_02-1024x535.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.davidstea.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Li_Sylvie_DT_Soupe_Twitter_02-1024x535.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.davidstea.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Li_Sylvie_DT_Soupe_Twitter_02-300x157.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.davidstea.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Li_Sylvie_DT_Soupe_Twitter_02-768x401.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"recipe-block-svg\">\n    <div class=\"recipe-ct\">\n        <div class=\"gmc-recipe\" id=\"gmc-print-11377\" itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/Recipe\" style=\"\">\n        <meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"https:\/\/blog.davidstea.com\" \/>\n    <h2 class=\"gmc-recipe-title \" itemprop=\"name\">Butternut Squash<\/h2><div class=\"gmc-print-area\">\n        \n            \n                              \n                              \n                              \n                              \n                              \n                              \n                              \n                                          \n<a class=\"gmc-print-options gmc-print-hidden\" href=\"#\" id=\"gmc-print-text-11377\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.davidstea.com\/en\/wp-content\/plugins\/getmecooking-recipe-templatex\/images\/print.png\" \/>Print recipe<\/a>          <\/div><div class=\"gmc-clear-both\">\n  <\/div><div class=\"gmc-recipe-main-photo\">\n<a class=\"\" href=\"\" rel=\"\">\n          <\/a>  <\/div>        <table class=\"gmc-recipe-summary-narrow no-main-photo\">\n                                                                                                                          <\/table>                \n    <div class=\"gmc-recipe-ingredients\"><h2 class=\"gmc-recipe-subtitle\">Ingredients<\/h2>            \n<ul class=\"gmc-ingredient-list\">\n                    \n                                    \n<li class=\"gmc-ingredient-list-item\" itemprop=\"ingredients\">4 Perfect Spoons of Organic Saigon Chai loose leaf tea<\/li>                                  \n                                    \n<li class=\"gmc-ingredient-list-item\" itemprop=\"ingredients\">2 tbsp olive oil<\/li>                                  \n                                    \n<li class=\"gmc-ingredient-list-item\" itemprop=\"ingredients\">1 cup milk or dairy-free alternative<\/li>                                  \n                                    \n<li class=\"gmc-ingredient-list-item\" itemprop=\"ingredients\">Salt and pepper<\/li>                                  \n                                    \n<li class=\"gmc-ingredient-list-item\" itemprop=\"ingredients\">Green onions<\/li>                                  \n                                    \n<li class=\"gmc-ingredient-list-item\" itemprop=\"ingredients\">Pumpkin seeds (pepitas)<\/li>                                  \n                                    \n<li class=\"gmc-ingredient-list-item\" itemprop=\"ingredients\">Cilantro (optional)<\/li>                                  \n                                    \n<li class=\"gmc-ingredient-list-item\" itemprop=\"ingredients\">6 cups water<\/li>                                  \n                                    \n<li class=\"gmc-ingredient-list-item\" itemprop=\"ingredients\">1 large butternut squash, peeled, cut in half and seeds removed<\/li>                                  \n                                    \n<li class=\"gmc-ingredient-list-item\" itemprop=\"ingredients\">1 small sweet potato, peeled<\/li>                                  \n                                    \n<li class=\"gmc-ingredient-list-item\" itemprop=\"ingredients\">1 garlic clove<\/li>                                          <\/ul>                          <\/div>      \n        <div class=\"gmc-recipe-steps\">\n<h2 class=\"gmc-recipe-subtitle\">\n        Directions\n      <\/h2>            \n        <table class=\"gmc-step-list\">\n                    \n                                                            <tr>\n<td class=\"gmc-step-list-title\" colspan=\"2\">\n                Step 1\n              <\/td>            <\/tr><tr class=\"gmc-step-list-item\">\n                                                        \n                                <td class=\"gmc-step-desc\" itemprop=\"recipeInstructions\">In a Steeper steep 4 Perfect Spoons of Saigon Chai loose leaf tea in 1 cup 95\u2103\/200\u2109 water for 4 mins.
