Ingredients
For the chai latte:
- 1 cup (240ml) milk (dairy or plant-based)
- 1 tsp loose black tea or 1 black tea bag
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ground ginger
- 1/8 tsp ground cardamom (or a pinch of ground cloves if desired)
- 1 tsp Just Bee Honey - our Turmeric Honey for that extra warmth, or Valencia Orange Honey for a fruity twist (adjust to taste)
- Optional: a dash of nutmeg or black pepper
For the whipped honey foam:
- 2 tbsp milk or cream
- 1 tsp Just Bee Honey
Method
1. Heat the milk: In a small saucepan, gently warm the milk over medium heat until steaming, but not boiling.
2. Add the spices: Stir in the cinnamon, ginger, cardamom (and optional nutmeg/pepper). Let the spices infuse for 1–2 minutes.
3. Brew the tea: Add the black tea and steep for 2–3 minutes. Remove the tea bag or strain loose leaves.
4. Sweeten: Stir in 1 tsp of your preferred Just Bee Honey until fully dissolved.
5. Make the whipped honey foam: In a small bowl, combine the 2 tbsp milk (or cream) and 1 tsp honey. Froth vigorously with a whisk, milk frother, or small hand blender until light and foamy.
6. Assemble the latte: Pour the chai latte into your favourite mug, then spoon the whipped honey foam on top.
7. Finish and serve: Sprinkle a tiny pinch of cinnamon on top for a beautiful finishing touch. Sip slowly and enjoy your cozy, café-style treat!
