Total Time:10 minutes
Yield:1 serving
Ingredients
1 cup strongly brewed chai tea, chilled
1/2 cup milk of choice
1 tablespoon maple syrup or brown sugar
1 cup ice cubes
1/4 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons milk
1 tablespoon pumpkin puree
1 teaspoon maple syrup
1/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

Instructions
Brew the chai tea and allow it to cool completely.
Fill a tall glass with ice cubes.
Pour the chilled chai tea into the glass.
Add the milk and maple syrup, then stir to combine.
In a small bowl or measuring cup, combine the heavy cream, milk, pumpkin puree, maple syrup, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla extract.
Use a milk frother or whisk to whip the mixture until thick, creamy, and pourable.
Gently pour the pumpkin cream foam over the chai latte.
Sprinkle with additional pumpkin pie spice or cinnamon if desired.
Serve immediately.
Notes
Store-bought chai concentrate can be used for convenience.
For a dairy-free version, use oat milk and coconut cream.
Add a shot of espresso for a dirty pumpkin chai latte.
Adjust sweetness to taste by increasing or reducing the maple syrup.
The chai base can be prepared up to 3 days in advance and refrigerated.
