Print Recipe

A refreshing and creamy iced latte combining fresh strawberries, spicy chai tea, a shot of espresso, and smooth oat milk for a deliciously bold and fruity drink.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
  • 2 chai tea bags
  • 1 shot espresso (about 1 oz / 30 ml)
  • 1 cup oat milk (240 ml), unsweetened or vanilla-flavored
  • 1–2 teaspoons sweetener (maple syrup or honey), optional
  • 1 cup ice cubes
  • Pinch of ground cinnamon for garnish

Instructions

  1. Boil 1 cup (240 ml) of water and steep 2 chai tea bags for 5-7 minutes. Remove tea bags and cool tea to room temperature or chill in fridge.
  2. Brew 1 shot of espresso (about 1 oz or 30 ml) and set aside to cool slightly.
  3. In a blender, combine 1 cup hulled and sliced fresh strawberries with 1 cup (240 ml) oat milk. Blend on high for about 30 seconds until smooth and creamy.
  4. Add 1-2 teaspoons of maple syrup or honey to the strawberry-oat milk blend and blend briefly to mix.
  5. Pour the cooled chai tea into the blender with the strawberry-oat milk mixture and pulse a few times to combine.
  6. Fill a tall glass with about 1 cup of ice cubes.
  7. Pour the strawberry chai oat milk blend over the ice, filling the glass about three-quarters full.
  8. Slowly pour the espresso shot over the top to create a layered ‘dirty’ effect.
  9. Sprinkle a pinch of ground cinnamon on top and serve immediately with a straw or spoon.

Notes

Use ripe strawberries for best sweetness; frozen strawberries can be thawed and used as a substitute. Adjust sweetness with maple syrup or honey as preferred. For vegan and refined sugar-free version, use maple syrup or agave nectar and plant-based espresso or cold brew. Pour espresso slowly to maintain the layered look. Store strawberry oat milk blend and chai tea separately in airtight containers in the fridge for up to 24 hours; brew espresso fresh before serving.
