Ingredients
Chai Tea
- 2 chai tea bags
- 1 cup boiling water
- Ice
- Oat milk
Brown Sugar Syrup
- 4 tbsp brown sugar (lightly packed)
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 6 tbsp water
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
Steep the Tea:
Place the tea bags in a mason jar or mug, pour boiling water over them, and let steep for 10 minutes.
Prepare the Syrup:
In a small saucepan, combine brown sugar, cinnamon, water, and vanilla. Heat on medium-high, whisking until the mixture simmers. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 3–5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the sugar dissolves and the syrup slightly thickens. Remove from heat and set aside.
Sweeten the Tea:
Stir 2 tbsp of the brown sugar syrup into the hot tea until well mixed.
Assemble the Latte:
Fill serving glasses 3/4 full with ice. Divide the chai tea mixture between the glasses and top with oat milk.
Serve and Enjoy:
Stir, sip, and enjoy your sweet and creamy Cookie Butter Iced Chai Latte!
