Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Unsweetened Almond Milk
- 1 cup Water
- 2 pieces Chai Tea Bags
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground Ginger
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground Cardamom
- 0.125 teaspoon Ground Cloves
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1 tablespoon Honey
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the almond milk and water. Heat over medium heat until the mixture is steaming but not boiling.
Add the chai tea bags to the milk mixture and reduce the heat to low. Allow the tea to steep for about 5 minutes to fully infuse the flavors.
Remove the tea bags, taking care to gently squeeze out any excess liquid into the saucepan.
Add ground cinnamon, ground ginger, ground cardamom, and ground cloves to the infused almond milk. Stir well to combine.
Add vanilla extract and honey to the mixture. Stir until the honey is fully dissolved and the spices are evenly distributed.
Continue to simmer the chai latte on low heat for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally to enhance the depth of flavor.
Once the mixture is heated to your preference and all ingredients are well combined, remove the saucepan from heat.
Use a milk frother or whisk vigorously to create a light foam on top of the latte, if desired.
Pour the heated chai latte into two mugs, dividing equally.
Serve immediately, perhaps garnished with an extra sprinkle of cinnamon on top for an added spice touch.
