FAQ

This Homemade Iced Chai Tea Latte Concentrate is one of those recipes that completely changed my daily routine and I am so excited to share it with you. I make a batch of this in my Instant Pot every week and having it ready in the refrigerator means I can pull together a perfect iced chai latte in about two minutes without ever leaving my house or spending coffee shop prices. The concentrate is made with whole spices including fresh ginger, cinnamon sticks, whole cloves, star anise, cardamom, and nutmeg along with black tea bags and it smells absolutely incredible while it is cooking.

The flavor is deeply spiced, perfectly sweet, and so much more complex and delicious than anything you can buy at the store.

The best part is how easy this is to make in the Instant Pot. The whole process takes just minutes of hands on time and then the concentrate stores in the refrigerator for up to 10 days which means you are set up for a full week of delicious homemade chai lattes with almost no effort.

You can serve it iced over milk for a cold and refreshing drink or heat it up for a warm and cozy chai latte depending on what you are in the mood for.

If you have been spending too much money at coffee shops on chai lattes this recipe is going to be a complete game changer for you.
