Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups unsweetened almond milk
- 1 black tea bag
- 1 cup water
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon ground ginger
- 0.25 teaspoon ground cardamom
- 0.125 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1 teaspoon stevia or low-carb sweetener
- 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cinnamon stick (for garnish, optional)
Instructions
In a small saucepan, bring the water to a gentle boil over medium heat.
Once the water is boiling, remove it from heat and add the black tea bag. Allow it to steep for 3-5 minutes, depending on your desired strength. Remove the tea bag and set the brewed tea aside.
Return the saucepan to low heat and add the almond milk, ground cinnamon, ground ginger, ground cardamom, and ground cloves.
Gently heat the almond milk mixture, stirring occasionally, until it is hot but not boiling, about 5 minutes.
Add the brewed black tea to the almond milk mixture and stir to combine.
Sweeten the chai latte to taste with stevia or your chosen low-carb sweetener. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Use a milk frother or whisk to create a frothy texture in the chai latte.
Divide the chai latte into two mugs. Optionally, garnish each mug with a cinnamon stick for extra aroma and flavor.
Serve immediately and enjoy your soothing low-carb almond milk chai latte.
