Ingredients

2 cups milk (dairy or plant-based)
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tablespoons sugar (or to taste)
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 chai tea bags
1/4 cup hot water
Whipped cream (optional, for topping)
Chocolate shavings (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

In a small saucepan, combine milk, cocoa powder, sugar, cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, cloves, and black pepper. Whisk to combine.
Place over medium heat and bring to a gentle simmer, whisking occasionally. Do not boil.
Meanwhile, steep chai tea bags in hot water for 3-5 minutes. Remove tea bags and set aside.
Once milk mixture is hot and steaming, remove from heat. Stir in the chai concentrate.
Use a frother or whisk to froth the latte until foamy.
Pour into two mugs. Top with whipped cream and chocolate shavings if desired. Serve immediately.

Tips

Adjust sweetness to your preference by adding more or less sugar.
For a stronger chai flavor, steep the tea bags longer or use two additional bags.
Make it dairy-free by using almond, oat, or soy milk.
