Amy Rothstein
Amy was born and raised in the Detroit area. She attended the University of Michigan, where Ann Arbor’s local food community nurtured her interest. She then moved to Boulder, Colorado where she worked on an urban farm and completed a farm-to-table culinary program. In the fall of 2012, Amy moved to Brooklyn to enroll in NYU Steinhardt’s Food Systems graduate program, class of 2014. Amy founded Dona Chai in March of 2014. Dona Chai is now the leading provider of the highest quality, handcrafted chai tea in Brooklyn.
Dain Evans
Dain, a Detroit-area native, graduated from Columbia College Chicago in 2013. Shortly after, he moved to Brooklyn to pursue a career in outreach and communications. After meeting Amy, owner and founder of Dona Chai, at a small flea market in Park Slope, these two Michiganders decided to work in tandem. Dain is currently the Director of Communications at Dona Chai.
The Company
Dona Chai is Brooklyn's first chai tea concentrate. Our tea is handcrafted in small batched using cold-pressed ginger, vanilla bean, freshly ground cinnamon, green cardamom, cloves, black peppercorns, and organic black tea. The slow steeping process builds complexity of flavor and preserves the purity of our ingredients. The result is a cup of bold and flavorful chai tea - fresh, natural, and Brooklyn-made.
