Expert Tips

Calcium, from dairy foods like milk, buttermilk and cheese can help build bones. Look for low-fat or part-skim varieties of cheese when you can.

For refreshing Chai Tea Smoothies, refrigerate mixture until cold. Pour Chai Tea into blender container, and add 1 cup crushed ice. Cover and blend on high speed until smooth.

Tea is okay. It's better with fresh ginger and adding cardamom with the other spices. A little splenda or other sweetener just makes it!
