Ingredients for iced pumpkin chai latte
For syrup:
- Water – This will provide the right consistency for our syrup.
- Pumpkin puree – Pumpkin puree adds a great pumpkin flavor.
- Brown sugar – Brown sugar will give us sweetness and add deep molasses flavor.
- Chai spice – Chai spices add warmth and great flavor.
For coffee:
- Espresso – Feel free to use your favorite variety.
- Whole milk – To add richness and a smooth, luscious mouth feel.
- Ice – To keep our drink refreshingly cold!
Types of milk
I’ve used cow’s milk here, but alternative milk (soy, almond, oat, etc) would be a great option.
Just be sure to use unsweetened varieties, or you may risk the drink becoming a little too sweet in the end.
What is chai spice?
Chai spice blends can be found in the spice section of most major grocery stores, but it’s easy to make it at home!
Most chai varieties blend the following spices: cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, cloves, nutmeg, and allspice.
Storage and leftovers
This recipe makes enough syrup for 15 drinks!
It can be easily stored in a squeeze bottle or jar and kept in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
