Hey there, soulful foodies!
Are you ready to infuse your day with a burst of flavor, a dash of spice and a warm sprinkle of joy? Let’s enter the world of spices and sweetness with a recipe that will make your taste buds dance—the ultimate Coconut Chai Tea Latte by Bobby Flay! 🍵✨
Ingredients:
- 1 teaspoon of bold black peppercorns
- 8 fragrant cardamom pods
- 8 warm whole cloves
- 2 aromatic cinnamon sticks (and a few star anise just for that Insta-worthy garnish!)
- Optional: A 2-inch piece of zesty fresh ginger, thinly sliced
- 6 bags of robust black tea
- 1 cup of creamy whole or 2-percent milk
- 1 cup of tropical unsweetened regular or low fat coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons to 1/4 cup of sweet light brown muscovado sugar
Let’s Get Brewing!
- Start by giving your peppercorns, cardamom, cloves, and cinnamon a little crush-crush love in a medium saucepan. When you’re feeling zingy, throw in that ginger!
- Pour in 6 cups of cold water and crank up the heat. Bring it to a rolling boil and then take a breather—remove it from the heat.
- It’s tea time! Add those tea bags and let them steep for 5 minutes. Say goodbye to the bags and let the spices continue their steeping sesh for another 10 minutes.
- In another saucepan, mix the milks and muscovado sugar. Warm it up until it’s just about to simmer—no boiling over!
- Strain the spiced water into your milky mix and give it a minute to get to know each other on the heat.
- Grab your whisk and go to town until it’s frothy and fabulous.
- Pour the magic into 4 mugs and garnish with a cinnamon stick because you’re fancy like that.
And there you have it, folks! A homemade coconut chai tea latte that’s so good, you’ll want to sip it with a smile. Share it with friends, or keep it all to yourself (we won’t tell). Enjoy this cozy cup of happiness and let it warm your soul! ☕💖
Cheers to Chai and Soulful Vibes! 🤩
