Description
A warm and comforting chai latte made with almond milk and sweetened to taste.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 organic chai tea bag
- 1/2 cup (120ml) water
- 1 cup (240ml) almond milk (or milk of choice)
- 1–2 teaspoons (5-10g) sweetener of choice (honey, agave or raw sugar)
Instructions
- Bring 1/2 cup (120 ml) of fresh water to a gentle boil in a small saucepan.
- Place the chai tea bag in a heat-proof mug and carefully pour the hot water over it, making sure it is fully submerged.
- Let the tea steep for 3–5 minutes (longer for a stronger flavor).
- While the tea is steeping, pour 1 cup (240 ml) of almond milk (or your preferred milk) into the same saucepan.
- Heat the milk over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until steaming but not boiling.
- Whisk the warm milk vigorously for about 30 seconds to create a light froth.
- Remove the chai tea bag from the mug, gently squeezing out excess liquid.
- Pour the warm, frothed milk into the mug with the concentrated chai tea.
- Add 1-2 teaspoons of sweetener (honey, agave, or sugar) to taste and stir well until fully dissolved.
- Give the chai latte a final stir and serve immediately.
- Optional: Sprinkle a small pinch of ground cinnamon or nutmeg on top before serving.
