How to make a chai milkshake?

The chai milkshake is a very tasty drink, simple to prepare and capable of giving a touch of exotic flavors to your morning or afternoon break. But how do you make a nice chai tea milkshake?

In the next lines we will try to understand it in the simplest way. That is, starting from the creation of a common chai tea,  and then moving on to the creation of a chai latte tea recipe with a small variation. But let’s go in order!

Chai milkshake, let’s start with the basics

As we anticipated a few lines ago, it is essential to start from the basics and, therefore, to understand how to make a chai tea. To do this you can crush the necessary spices (cardamom, cloves, black pepper and, in addition, depending on the variant you prefer, fennel seeds and nutmeg), or make your life a little easier and buy one of the sachets ready for use.

Whatever the origin of your spices (already mixed or crushed yourself), put them in a saucepan, along with some cinnamon sticks and a little ginger. Then place the container on the heat, add 450 ml of water and 450 of whole milk, and wait for the mixture to start boiling. Stir occasionally to redistribute the spices, and be careful that the heat is not too high, as doing so runs the risk of burning your chai latte.

As soon as the mixture starts to boil, move the saucepan off the heat and steep some tea bags for about ten minutes. Stir occasionally to help the aromas from the sachets escape.

At this point all you have to do is to filter the tea using a strainer, so that the spices can be retained. Sweeten by adding a few teaspoons of sugar, depending on your tastes. You can also drink it hot or lukewarm, or wait a little longer to enjoy a cold chai latte.

How to turn chai tea into a chai milkshake

In the last few lines we have shared some reflections on how you can create a simple chai latte tea through the use of the most common spices ideal for making this type of preparation.

However, after answering the question “how to make chai latte?”, we can only focus on understanding how to transform this product into a chai milkshake.

Luckily for you, the steps you will have to take are few and very simple!

To transform the chai tea that you have prepared following the above instructions into a good chai milkshake all you have to do is add some milk and vanilla ice cream, obtaining a very tasty drink, also ideal during the summer.

To make it, blend 50 grams of the mixture of spices, sugar, tea and milk powder, with 250 ml of milk and half a kilo of vanilla ice cream. The result will be a delicious, thick milkshake to enjoy with whoever you want!
