Description
Sweet, spicy, and ice cold, is there anything more refreshing than an Iced Chai Latte? It's easy to make this boldly flavored iced chai latte at home with just a chai teabag and a little patience — no boxes of concentrate required!
Ingredients
- ½ cup water
- 1 chai teabag
- ice cubes
- 1/2 cup milk, dairy or non-dairy (more or less, to taste)
- 1-3 teaspoons sweetener, sugar, maple syrup or honey (optional, or to taste)
Instructions
- Bring water to a boil in a small saucepan. Remove from heat and add tea bag. Steep for 5 minutes. Then, remove and discard the teabag. Transfer to the fridge to chill for about 5-10 minutes.
- Place a few ice cubes into a glass cup. Fill with the chai tea concentrate, then top with milk.
- Stir gently to combine and taste. Add sweetener, if desired.
Notes
How to store: Any leftover chai concentrate should be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for 5-7 days. I like to make extra to keep in a large mason jar or a pitcher for easy pouring.
How to freeze: If you have any iced chai leftover, pour it into ice cube molds and freeze it. The next time you make an iced chai, use the frozen cubes to keep your drinks from diluting. This makes the very best iced chai latte!
