Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 bag Chai tea bag
- 240 ml Water
- 240 ml Milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 60 ml Espresso
- 1 tablespoon Honey or sweetener of choice
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
Instructions
Start by boiling 240 ml of water in a small pot or a kettle.
Once the water reaches a rolling boil, remove from heat and add the chai tea bag. Let it steep for 5 minutes to extract a strong chai flavor.
Meanwhile, in a separate small saucepan, heat 240 ml of milk over medium heat until steaming. Do not let it boil.
Prepare 60 ml of fresh espresso using an espresso machine. If you don't have one, strong brewed coffee can be a substitute.
After the tea has steeped, remove the tea bag and pour the chai into your favorite mug.
Add the hot milk to the chai directly, holding back the foam with a spoon. Then gently spoon the foam on top.
Pour the hot espresso into the mug, allowing it to mix with the chai and milk.
Stir in 1 tablespoon of honey or your preferred sweetener.
Sprinkle ground cinnamon and ground nutmeg on top for extra spice and aroma.
Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade Dirty Chai Latte.
