Chai syrup

Easy Homemade Chai Syrup

Ingredients:

2 cups of hot water

4-6 chai tea bags, or 1/4 cup of loose chai tea

1 cup of brown sugar (adjust to taste, or substitute with white sugar if preferred)

1 teaspoon of vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon of ground ginger

1/4 teaspoon of ground cloves

1/4 teaspoon of cardamom

Instructions:

Steep the Tea:

In a medium saucepan, bring the hot water to a simmer. Add the chai tea bags or loose chai tea and let steep for 5-10 minutes, depending on how strong you prefer the tea base.

Add Spices:

After steeping, remove the tea bags or strain the loose tea. Return the tea-infused water to the saucepan. Stir in the ground cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and cardamom. Simmer these together for a few minutes to allow the spices to meld.

Sweeten the Mixture:

Add the brown sugar to the saucepan, stirring constantly until it’s completely dissolved. Adjust the sweetness to your liking by adding more or less sugar.

Add Vanilla:

Remove the saucepan from the heat. Stir in the vanilla extract for an extra layer of flavor and aroma.

Cool and Strain:

Allow the mixture to cool slightly. Then, strain the syrup through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any solid particles and ensure a smooth texture.

Bottle and Store:

Pour the finished chai syrup into a clean glass bottle or jar. Seal tightly and store in the refrigerator.

How to Use it to Make a Chai Latte:

To make a hot chai latte, mix equal parts chai syrup and warm milk. For an iced chai latte, combine chai syrup with cold milk and pour over ice.

Adjust the syrup-to-milk ratio according to your taste preference for both drinks.
