Chai Spice Latte

I am a huge fan of Chai Lattes. I think it is probably because I flippin love cinnamon! So Chai tea is one of my favorite go-to orders and early morning caffeine choices.

Chai Tea is a blend of black-tea and spices including cardamom, cinnamon, black pepper, cloves, fennel, and more. The Chai Latte contains the Chai Tea mixed with milk and a sweetener.

So what’s not to love? It’s spicy, creamy, and sweet!

When I have a little more time in the morning, I like to make this Chai Spice Latte. It takes a bit longer then just making Chai tea and adding some creamer, but it is totally worth it.

To make, start by heating a cup of milk in a sauce pan on the stove. Once the milk is simmering, remove from heat and add in two bags of Chai Tea.

Let the tea steep for 5 minutes. After five minutes remove the tea bags, place back on the stove, and start to reheat the milk adding the maple syrup, cinnamon, a dash of cloves, and a dash of allspice.

Once the mixture is warmed and the ingredients are fully combined, remove from heat and pour into blender to froth the mixture (optional). Pour mixture into a mug and top with cinnamon!
