Iced Chai
teas.co.uk · 10 min + chill · Serves 2
You'll need
- 3 PG Tips Chai tea bags
- 250ml rolling boil water, for a strong concentrate
- 2 tablespoons honey or brown sugar
- 300ml cold milk of your choice
- Plenty of ice and a dust of cinnamon, to serve
Method
- Steep the 3 chai bags in 250ml rolling boil water for 6 minutes for a strong, deeply spiced concentrate.
- Lift the bags out and stir in the honey or brown sugar while hot so it dissolves; cold chai needs sweetening to read through the milk.
- Cool the sweetened concentrate, then chill until cold; sweetening before chilling is what makes iced chai work.
- Fill two tall glasses with ice and divide the cold milk between them.
- Pour the chilled chai concentrate slowly over the back of a spoon onto the milk so it layers in dark ribbons.
- Dust with cinnamon and stir at the table; for a punchy version use whole milk, for a creamier one use oat.
