Description
Chai Tea Latte – A perfectly sweet afternoon treat!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup hot water
- 1 chai tea bag (feel free to use a homemade spice blend if you prefer)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1–2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 3/4 cup coconut milk*
- 2–3 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk
Instructions
- Add water to a small saucepan.
- Bring to a simmer and then remove from heat and add tea bag. Let steep.
- Once done steeping remove the tea bag and add in vanilla extract and maple syrup. Stir to combine.
- Meanwhile, add coconut milk and unsweetened almond milk to your frother and froth.
- Pour tea into your favorite mug and then pour the frothed milk on top.
- Enjoy!
Notes
- Skip the Saucepan: you can obviously make the cup of tea however you want – I personally prefer heating my water up in a saucepan – but if you want to warm up your water in the microwave or using a Keurig or similar device, that works too!
- *Coconut milk: you can really use any nondairy milk that you have success frothing – this coconut milk works amazing – it is perfectly thick and froths up so nicely! And of course, if you aren’t dairy-free then feel free to use regular milk (whole milk works best).
- Unsweetened Almondmilk – I add this is to water down the coconut milk just a tiny bit – you can also use oat milk here or cashew milk too!
- Maple Syrup: feel free to omit the sweetener if you want. You could also sub in honey or any other sweetener you prefer.
- Frother: I have had this frother for well over a year and really like it. If you don’t have a frother you can always use a handheld one instead – the results are quite as good, but it will get the job done in a pinch!
