Ingredients

INGREDIENTS

  • 4 cups water
  • 4 black tea bags
  • 2 cinnamon sticks
  • 6 green cardamom pods, crushed
  • 1 star anise
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1 cup coconut cream
  • Ice cubes

Instructions

  1. Boil 4 cups of water in a saucepan.
  2. Once boiling, add the black tea bags, crushed cinnamon sticks, cardamom pods, and star anise.
  3. Reduce heat and let the mixture simmer for 10 minutes to steep the spices.
  4. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract and honey/maple syrup until dissolved.
  5. Strain the tea into a pitcher and let it cool to room temperature.
  6. Once cooled, refrigerate the tea until chilled, about 1 hour.
  7. In a separate bowl, whip the coconut cream until light and fluffy, then set aside.
  8. To serve, fill glasses with ice cubes, pour the chilled spiced chai over ice, and top with a dollop of whipped coconut cream.
  9. Garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon or a cinnamon stick if desired.

Notes

Tip: Use coconut milk for a lighter version of the foam.

For an extra kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the spice mix. You can also adjust the sweetness by varying the amount of honey or using a sugar substitute.

Store any leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days. Just give it a good stir before serving again!
