Ice Tea Latte Coffee-Datoxinista

0 2 3 minutes read

About 20 years ago, when I was a barista in college, I started making chai lattes. At that time, we used a chai concentrate that could sit on the counter for a month without destroying it. (Probably thanks to all sugars as preservatives.)

It took me weeks to make a parody version of this chai concentrate because I wish it would taste like a coffee shop without using refined sugar. I also don’t want to spend time cooking full spices on the stove to make a simple syrup.

Fortunately, I came up with a simple solution that can be assembled in minutes. All you have to do is wait for a strong cup of tea to brew while adding some ingredients to the jar. It tastes very similar to the store-bought version, and for the rest of the week you will let you drink the iced chai latte!

Ice Tea Latte Ingredients

Here is what you need:

black tea. You don’t need a tea bag to make a chai latte. Any simple black tea will be made! We immediately use a few portions to concentrate the tea flavor.
spices. For convenience, we are using ground spices, and only three of them will provide a lot of flavor. If you prefer spicy wood, strengthen ginger and cloves, or add a little cardamom or nutmeg for a deeper look.
Maple syrup. This natural sweetener pairs perfectly with these spices, and since it is liquid, you don’t need to boil it on the stovetop like regular sugar. Honey may be exchanged, but may affect the taste.

How to make iced tea

Step 1:

Arrange 4 black tea bags in a large cup or measuring cup and pour 1 cup of boiling water on top. Let the tea steep for 3 to 5 minutes.

Step 2:

In a 16-ounce mason jar, add maple syrup, cinnamon, ginger and cloves. Once the tea is brewed, remove the tea bags and pour the intense tea into a mason jar with syrup and spices.

Mix everything together with stirring, or hold the lid on the jar and shake. This is your chai tea concentrate!

Step 3:

Add about 1 1/2 cup of ice to the glass and pour 3/4 cup of your favorite milk over the ice.

Each time you are ready to use, shake the concentrate in the jar and pour 1/4 cup of the concentrate into iced milk. (Make a beautiful vortex in this way!)

Stir well and enjoy! If you need a sweeter or spicy flavor, add more Chai concentrate if you think it is appropriate.

Changes of iced lattes

Make a “dirty chai latte” by adding espresso or a cold beer to the glass. You can also make it more considerate by adding a ball of foam or whipped cream to it.

Tips for storing cholesterol concentrates

Store the remaining concentration in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. The recipe can produce about five servings in writing, but it can easily double or double if needed.

4 Black tea bag
1 cup boiling water
6 spoon Maple Syrup
2 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon Ginger on the ground
¼ teaspoon Ground lilac

Serve

¾ cup Selected milk (Each serving)
1½ cup ice

While the tea is soaked, add maple syrup, cinnamon, ginger and cloves to a 16-ounce mason jar with lid. Stir them together with stirring, or secure the lid to the jar and shake. Add the tea and shake again to finish the chai tea concentrate.
When you are ready to make a serving, add ice and 3/4 cup of milk to the glass. Pour 1/4 cup of the chai concentrate onto the milk and stir. You can add more concentrate to make it taste more fragrant, or add more milk to dilute the flavor. The choice is up to you!
