Servings: 5 cups
Calories: 16kcal
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups unsweetened instant tea
- 1 ½ cups sugar
- 1 cup dry milk powder
- 1 cup powdered non-dairy creamer
- 2 ½ teaspoons ground ginger
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- ¾ teaspoon ground cloves
- ¾ teaspoon ground cardamom
- ¾ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
- Combine spices, black tea powder, sugar, coffee creamer, and powdered milk in a blender or food processor and blend until well combined and the mixture is a fine powder. No food processor? You can measure ingredients into a large bowl and use a whisk to combine them well. The resulting mixture will be coarser.
- If you prefer to start with whole spices, no problem. Grind them in a coffee grinder or heavy-duty blender before measuring the ground spices into the recipe.
- Store spiced tea mix in an airtight container for up to six months.
To use:
- Stir 2 teaspoons of tea mix into a mug of hot water or hot milk and stir well.
Notes
- To make a dirty chai latte, stir in a shot of espresso into the hot mug.
- For an iced latte, you can add the chai mix to cold milk or water, but it may not dissolve as well as you'd like. You can also make a big batch to enjoy by mixing 3 tablespoons of chai powder into a quart of hot milk or water. Refrigerate to chill and serve over ice.
- If you're a fan of French vanilla chai, add 2 teaspoons vanilla powder to the mix. Dairy free folks can use coconut, almond, oat, or soy milk.
