Method

  1. Steep the 3 chai bags in 250ml rolling boil water for 6 minutes for a strong, deeply spiced concentrate.
  2. 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.
  3. Cool the sweetened concentrate, then chill until cold; sweetening before chilling is what makes iced chai work.
  4. Fill two tall glasses with ice and divide the cold milk between them.
  5. Pour the chilled chai concentrate slowly over the back of a spoon onto the milk so it layers in dark ribbons.
  6. Dust with cinnamon and stir at the table; for a punchy version use whole milk, for a creamier one use oat.
