Chai latte, or chai tea latte, is made using spiced chai tea instead of espresso. This iced version uses cold milk and ice cubes to chill the drink, perfect for spring or summer.

🥘 Ingredients

Iced lattes are easier to make at home than you’d think! All you need is chai tea, almond milk and ice cubes.

Optionally, you can also add honey or any other sweetener if you prefer a sweet drink.

🔪 How to make iced chai latte with almond milk

Boil water in a pot or kettle, then pour it into a glass or jug. Add chia tea bags, and leave them to steep for 4-5 minutes. Remove the tea bags. If you wish to add any sweeteners such as honey and maple syrup, you should do that now and dissolve it into the tea. Allow the tea to cool down completely.

Add ice cubes and almond milk to a glass, and pour the cold tea over the top. For a milk chai latte, you should fill half the glass with milk. For a stronger chai flavor, you should fill the glass a quarter full with milk.

You can either make this drink in single servings, or brew the chai tea in a larger jug to prepare several servings of cold chai latte.

🥛 Milk

I love to make chai lattes with almond milk, however you can use any type of milk. Cow’s milk, soy milk, oat milk and rice milk are all excellent choices.

If you like a sweet iced latte, you can use sweetened almond milk.

💭 Top tips

Here’s the best advice on how you can make the perfect iced chai latte.

• Feel free to infuse the drink with any flavors you want. Chai tea is sometimes served with a sprinkle of cinnamon or cardamom, but you could try adding any flavor you like.
• Any iced drink is way nicer when served over ice cubes!
• Allow the tea to cool down completely before adding it to the milk. This definitely makes the best chilled drink.

🍲 Leftovers

You can store leftover iced chai latte in the fridge for up to 2 days. I like to keep the tea and milk separate, and pour them over ice cubes when I feel like making a drink.
