Maple Vanilla Chai Tea Latte Ingredients

• Oat Milk: Earth’s Own Barista Oat Milk to keeps this recipe dairy free but foams just like regular milk!
• Chai Tea: My favourite Chai Teas are STASH and TAZO. Chai is filled with spices like cinnamon, cloves, black pepper and ginger to create a flavourful tea.
• Vanilla Extract: This recipe uses artificial vanilla extract but pure vanilla extract can be used.
• Maple Syrup: This naturally sweetener is perfect for tea lattes because it blends in with the oat milk without any clumps!

How to Make Chai Tea Latte with Maple and Vanilla

1. Steep Chai Tea: Use a kettle to boil water and steep a chai tea bag in a heat safe mug.
2. Heat the Milk: Heat the oat milk at a low heat in a small saucepan. Let the oat milk begin to bubble (but not boiling), add in the maple syrup and vanilla. Stir until combined.
3. Froth: Remove the oat milk from the heat. Use a milk frother to froth the milk until the milk doubles in size.
4. Make the latte: Next, pour the frothed milk on top of the chai tea.
5. Garnish: Sprinkle with ground cinnamon or ground dark chocolate. Serve immediately.

Notes

Substitute for a milk frother: Use a whisk and rapidly beat the oat milk (similar to whisking eggs) until it froths.

Oat milk: For the oat milk to froth like dairy milk, use an oat milk that says it is a “barista blend”. If you use non-barista oat milk, it will not froth.

Maple syrup: Use real maple syrup. Table syrup is artificially sweetened and will alter the taste of the drink.
