teas.co.uk · 8 min · Serves 1

You'll need

• 25g Drink Me Chai Dirty Chai Latte powder (1 standard serving)
• 200ml whole milk
• 35ml blended Scotch whisky
• 1 teaspoon of clear runny honey
• 1 half slice of fresh lemon, for the rim
• 1 warmed 400ml mug
• 1 small saucepan
• 1 small balloon whisk
• Alcohol free swap: 35ml chilled ginger beer in place of the whisky, plus a fresh lemon wheel for the rim

Method

1. Warm a large mug with hot water, then pour it away.
2. Warm the milk in a small saucepan over medium low heat until it just steams, around 70C, not boiling.
3. Off the heat, shower in the dirty chai powder and whisk hard for thirty seconds until smooth and uniform.
4. Pour through a fine sieve into the warmed mug to catch any clumps.
5. Stir in the whisky and the honey, tasting to balance.
6. Hook a half slice of lemon over the rim for its scent.
7. Tip: for an alcohol free version, skip the whisky and add a small splash of ginger beer at the end for a bit of bite.
