No Starbucks!

I LOVE chai lattes- iced, hot, or blended. Love them all.

 

So moving to the country, I had to give these up! No more Scooter's no more Starbucks.

 

I have however found a pretty decent at home recipe and want to share it with you.

 

 

Ingredients

 

2 individual tea bags

 

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

 

1/2 teaspoon ground ginger

 

1/4 teaspoon ground allspice

 

1 cup water

 

1 cup milk

 

1/4 cup packed brown sugar

 

2 tablespoons refrigerated French vanilla nondairy creamer

 

Whipped topping and ground nutmeg, optional 

 

Directions

Place the tea bags, cinnamon, ginger and allspice in the coffee filter of a drip coffeemaker. Add water; brew according to manufacturer's directions.

Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine the milk, brown sugar and creamer. Cook and stir over medium heat until heated through and sugar is dissolved. Pour milk mixture into mugs; stir in tea. Dollop with whipped topping and sprinkle with nutmeg if desired.

Yield: 2 servings.

 

This recipe is very very sweet- strong chai. If you do not like things super sweet- I DO, then you might want to do half the brown sugar.

Enjoy!
