Ingredients for this recipe
Making a chai latte at home
This is just a brief overview, find detailed instructions in the recipe card below!
- Prepare the chai. If you’re going to enjoy this drink hot, you must heat up the concentrate. It’s easy enough to do this in the microwave or on the stove.
- Combine the tea with milk. That’s also been warmed. I like to do this with a milk frother, but it can also be done in the microwave or on the stove.
- Garnish and enjoy. I like to sprinkle the top of my chai latte with a pinch of chai spice blend to get even more of that delicious chai flavor.
Store-bought Chai Concentrate
You can purchase Tazo Chai Concentrate at most grocery stores, Target, or similar shops. It’s a great replacement for making your own and gets you that much closer to a complete Starbucks dupe.
