Chai tea latte

Step by Step

Step 1

Place almond milk, tea bags, maple syrup, and chai spices into a small sauce pan and whisk.

Step 2

Next, bring to a boil over medium/high heat and immediately remove from heat.

Step 3

Let the tea seep for at least 3 minutes or longer if you would like it stronger.

Step 4

Remove tea bags and pour the whole mixture through a fine sieve into a mug (if you don’t have a sieve just be sure to not pour the sediment at the bottom of the pot into the mug).

Step 5

If drinking hot, serve immediately. If you’d like an iced chai tea latte, let the mixture cool for around 10 minutes. Then, pour it over a large glass of ice.

Tips and Warnings

We tested this recipe with both black tea and chai tea. Both were wonderful. The chai tea definitely had a more intense flavor.
Iced instructions: Looking to drink an iced chai tea latte? Simply let the mixture cool for around 10-15 minutes. Then, serve it over ice. It’s as easy as that!
If your homemade chai tea latte recipe is gritty, it’s probably because the chai spices settled at the bottom of your cup. This is why we used a fine sieve to remove the sediment so that there is no grittiness.
Feel free to use any kind of milk for this recipe.
