You'll need
- 1 bag Dragonfly Organic Cape Chai Rooibos
- 1 bag Teapigs Mao Feng Green Tea
- 150ml water at about 85C
- 150ml milk or oat milk
- 1 tsp honey or maple syrup, optional
- A pinch of ground cinnamon to dust
Method
- Rest the just boiled kettle to about 85C so the green tea does not scorch.
- Steep both bags together in the 150ml water for 4 minutes, brewing the chai spice and the green tea into one concentrated base.
- Lift out the bags and stir the honey or maple syrup into the base if using.
- Warm the milk gently, then froth it until light and airy.
- Pour the frothed milk over the tea base, holding the foam back with a spoon, then spoon the foam on top.
- Dust with cinnamon and serve. Because only a small share is green tea, the caffeine stays low enough for late in the day.
- Warm a pinch of cinnamon into the milk as well, so the spice runs through the latte not just the foam.
