Rating: 3.5
Pros: Soothes the lungs, mind, and gives me an erection.
Cons: A weird taste that’s different from other milk mixers. Smells bad. Kind of pricey.
Every time I make my junk food run to fill my special food bucket, I occasionally stop by the health foods section so I wouldn’t feel so guilty eating a bag of Reese’s Pieces. Ordinarily, nothing catches my eye because most of the items are too damn expensive. Oregon Chai Nog suddenly attracted me to its ugly box simply because it was on sale.
Chai Nog sounds disgusting and tastes disgusting (without milk). It’s a mix of egg-nog and chai tea. The instructions inform you to pour half milk and half Chai Nog. I apparently did not see those instructions when I first decided the just pop open the box and pour some juice directly into my mouth. I gagged a little.
With the skim milk that I provided, Chai Nog is pretty tasty. The drink was kind of weird since I’m very use to drinking Nesquik mixes. The spice is pretty strong and the egg-nog is subtle enough for even non-egg-nog lovers. The Chai Nog soothed my throat and made me feel lighter on the inside. I felt like meditating but instead ended up taking a nap naked.
What makes Chai Nog excellent is that you can decide the strength or weakness your Chai Nog. The suggested serving suggested pouring half a cup of Chai Nog and half a cup of milk. I found that to be a little bit strong and too sweet so I decided to drink my Chai with 3/5 milk instead. It’s excellent.
Chai Nog may not be the best tasting flavor from Oregon Chai but it has sparked my interest in the brand. The next time I make my food run, I’ll make a mental note to try the other Oregon Chai flavors. I have definitely found an alternative to Nesquik.

Dec. 2008 I normally order 5-6 cases about this time every year. This year I cannot find anymore Chai Nog Tea. Contacted the manufacturer and they tell me they discontinued this. Woe is me. I started everyday with it for several years.
