Description

Indulge in the cozy flavors of fall with this Iced Apple Crisp Cream Chai, a homemade version of Starbucks’ seasonal favorite. This refreshing and creamy drink combines the bold spices of chai tea with a smooth apple crisp cream topping for a perfect fall-inspired treat. Whether it’s a cool afternoon or a cozy day at home, this drink is quick to make, easy to customize, and just as delicious as the original Starbucks version.


Ingredients

For the Iced Chai Tea Latte:

  • 1/2 cup concentrated chai tea
  • 1/2 cup milk (or dairy-free alternative like oat milk)
  • Ice (to fill the glass)
  • Optional: 1-2 tablespoons apple brown sugar syrup (for extra sweetness)

For the Apple Crisp Cream Topping:

  • 2 teaspoons apple brown sugar syrup
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream (or coconut cream for dairy-free)
  • 1 tablespoon milk (preferably whole or 2%, or use a dairy-free milk alternative)


Instructions

  1. Apple Crisp Cream Topping: Chill a small bowl and whisk in the freezer for 10-15 minutes. Combine heavy cream, milk, and apple brown sugar syrup in the chilled bowl. Whisk until thickened and creamy. Return to freezer until needed, then whisk again to desired consistency.
  2. Iced Apple Crisp Cream Chai Latte: Combine chai concentrate and milk in a 16-ounce cup. Add ice, leaving space at the top. Pour apple crisp cream over the chai. Optionally, sprinkle ground cinnamon on top. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Dairy-Free Version: Swap heavy cream and milk for coconut cream and dairy-free milk.
  • Sweetness Adjustments: Customize sweetness with more or less apple brown sugar syrup.
  • Storage: Best served fresh; apple crisp cream can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
  • Customize: Add cinnamon, caramel, or nutmeg for different flavors.
