Ingredients
  • 6 cups filtered water
  • 3" piece of ginger peeled and chopped
  • 6 cinnamon sticks
  • 1 tsp black peppercorns
  • 3 vanilla beans
  • 20 cloves
  • 3 tsp cardamon seeds
  • 6 organic black tea bags
  • 4 Tbsp grade B maple syrup
  • 6 cups nut or coconut milk
Instructions
  1. To make the vanilla maple chai tea lightly crush all spices except cinnamon sticks and vanilla beans.
  2. Add spices to a pot along with the filtered water and maple syrup and cook on medium low for 20 min.
  3. Add tea bags and let steep for 15 min.
  4. Strain tea (I like to use a nut bag) and put in an airtight container.
  5. The tea mixture will last for around 2 weeks in the fridge.
  6. To make either a hot or iced vanilla maple chai latte mix equal parts of the chai tea with non-dairy milk of choice. Warm on the stove if drinking hot or top with ice if drinking cold.
Notes
Use organic whenever possible!
