Tips & Notes
- Ground spices leave grit in the drink. Pour the infused milk through a fine-mesh strainer lined with cheesecloth before you sweeten it.
- For an iced latte, chill the infused milk in the fridge until cold, then pour it over the ice in two glasses. Warm milk melts the ice and waters the drink down.
- Chai spice blends are usually plain ground spices, but premixed chai latte powders often add milk powder, sweeteners and flavorings. Choose a blend labeled gluten-free.
