CHAI LATTE RECIPE

I’m more of a coffee person. But if I’m feeling like tea, chai tea lattes are my go-to.

If I’m being totally honest, chai tea lattes are one of those drinks that taste really different every time you order them. Sometimes not in a good way. It really depends on the ingredients the coffee shop uses and who is making the drink. This is the main reason I began making them at home. Plus, it’s cheaper and more convenient.
