Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups unsweetened almond milk

- 0.25 teaspoons ground cardamom
- 0.125 teaspoons ground cloves
- 0.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons sugar-free sweetener (like stevia or erythritol)
- 0.5 cups unsweetened almond milk (for frothing)
Instructions
In a small saucepan, bring 2 cups of unsweetened almond milk to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
Add the chai tea bags to the simmering milk and steep for 5 minutes. For stronger chai flavor, steep an additional 2-3 minutes.
Remove the tea bags, pressing them gently with a spoon to extract all the liquid.
Add ground cinnamon, ground ginger, ground cardamom, and ground cloves to the chai-infused milk. Stir well to combine.
Stir in the vanilla extract and sugar-free sweetener, adjusting to taste.
In a separate small saucepan or using a milk frother, heat and froth the additional 0.5 cups of unsweetened almond milk to create foam.
Pour the spiced chai mixture into two cups, distributing evenly.
Top each cup with the frothed almond milk.
Optionally, sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon on top for garnish before serving.
