Why do people think chai lattes are pretentious???
I'm 13 and chai lattes are my favorite drink ever because they are so sweet and creamy and my mom and grandparents think it's pretentious! Why?? It's just a drink!!
Answers:
Because it sounds 'fancy' isn't very popular and may or may not be a little more expensive than a regular latte. Really, unless you are trying to impress people or be snobbish, you cannot possible be pretentious. Your family members are teasing you! Enjoy your drink.
That's just old people talk. They probably think anything other than Black coffee is pretentious. I like chai too. It tastes like pumpkin pie.
I think it's mainly because they're not educated on it. Chai tea is simply black tea that contains certain spices from the country of India. That flavor has only recently been introduced to Western Civilization, and your grandparents may think it is a fad drink or something. Next time they say that, ask them why they think that. Tell them what Chai tea is, and maybe they'll know not to call it that next time.
here's some interesting stuff about chai tea.
