Holiday Chai Latte

December 4, 2018 By Susan M. Brooks

Holiday Chai Latte

One of my favorite cold weather brews, for celebrating special occasions, or just because…Enjoy its enticing morning aroma while simmering!

ingredients

4 cups water

2 whole star anise pieces

5 crushed green cardamom pods

1 cinnamon stick

½ tsp black peppercorns

1/2 tsp whole cloves

1 TB finely diced ginger root

1 TB finely diced turmeric root

2 tsp of matcha (or 4 green or black tea bags)

1 cup milk of your choice, including non-dairy options ie – coconut, cashew, almond , rice, hemp milk

liquid stevia to taste (or local raw organic honey or Vermont maple syrup)

preparation

Bring water, star anise, cardamom, cinnamon stick, peppercorns, cloves, ginger and turmeric root to a boil. Reduce to a simmer for 5 minutes. Add matcha (or green or black tea bags). Simmer gently  for 3 more minutes. Strain  and pour into 2 mugs. Stir in ½ cup of warmed milk in each. Sweeten to taste. For a special treat, add your chai to a blender (I use a Magic Bullet) and froth.
