3-Ingredient Iced Dirty Chai Latte Recipe

in Brewed on 08/10/20

To spice up your coffee game, try this quick iced dirty chai latte recipe.

Jump to Recipe
Iced Dirty Chai Latte
  • This dirty iced chai latte only requires 3 ingredients!
  • You can use store-bought chai or make your own concentrate if you’re feeling adventurous.
  • Feel free to replace the espresso with strong coffee, if you don’t have a way to make espresso at home.
  • Enjoy this dirty chai warm by foaming your milk and skipping the ice cubes!

A fun way to spice up your coffee routine is by literally adding spice to it. A dirty chai is just a latte (consisting of foamy milk and espresso) with a splash of chai concentrate. To make a chai concentrate, you must combine a number of spices including ginger, cardamom, nutmeg, star anise, black peppercorns, and cinnamon (with a few other ingredients as well — see below!).

In combining the chai concentrate with a normal latte, you’re left with a warm and spicy espresso drink that is sure to keep you perked up all throughout the day.

Read on to make this super easy 3-ingredient dirty chai latte. 

DIY Dirty Chai Iced Latte Recipe

This is a great way to mix up your coffee routine.

If you’re sick of your usual coffee routine, adding some chai to your day can spice things up (quite literally!).

The chai in this recipe adds a hint of sweetness to your morning coffee with some spice. It’s not overly sweet, and of course, can be adjusted with the amount of chai concentrate you decide to put in your iced latte.

My favorite chai concentrate is Rishi Masala Chai.

Chai concentrate is a very strong brew of chai tea that must be diluted with water or milk. You can enjoy it sweetened or unsweetened depending on your personal preference.

Rishi Masala Chai Concentrate

Rishi Masala Chai Tea Concentrate is my favorite. It’s not overly sweet, and has a real taste to it (I’ve noticed some concentrates can taste really artificial, and this one does not). This brand of chai concentrate is also organic, which is always a perk in my book.

Another option is to make a homemade chai tea concentrate. It requires quite a few ingredients and a bit of energy, but it allows you to tailor the recipe to your personal taste.

Replace espresso with a strong cup of coffee, if you don’t have an espresso machine.

If you don’t have a fancy espresso machine (or the time and energy to make an espresso without a machine — yes, it can be done!), you can use 1/2 cup of really strong coffee. This will work just as well, and it tastes just as delicious!

Enjoy this dirty chai warm by skipping the ice cubes and foaming your milk.

For those of you who prefer a warm/hot dirty chai, this recipe can be easily modified. Simply foam or froth your milk before adding it to the chai mixture as described in the recipe below.

You can foam your milk by using a steam wand, using a milk frother, or by shaking up your milk of choice in a mason jar (see post here for details!).

To enjoy warm, you also will go ahead and skip adding the ice cubes.

The Flair Pro 2 Review: For The True Espresso-Lover

Toffee, also known as buttercrunch in the US, is a Toffee, also known as buttercrunch in the US, is a delectable hard candy that is made by boiling sugar and butter together.

This recipe is unique in that it’s very thin (so it’s safe for your teeth!) and it’s also nut-free (shoutout to my bestie). Pretzels are used here to give it that extra bit of texture that nuts provide in traditional English toffee.

Here are few recipe highlights: 
•This easy toffee recipe has loads of dark chocolate and crushed, salty pretzels.
•Coat both sides of the toffee with melted chocolate and pretzels for maximum enjoyment. 
•Pair this toffee with a light roast coffee to balance out the dark and buttery flavors of the toffee.

Full recipe is on the blog because it’s too long for a post unfortunately, link is in bio!

With the warm weather here in Philly and the cherr With the warm weather here in Philly and the cherry blossoms blossoming, I’ve been all about cold brew. Talking about it, making it, and of course — drinking it. To help you in your own brewing adventures, I came up with a few cold brew coffee hacks to improve your cold brew game.  

Here are my best cold brew tips/hacks for you: 

1. Brew your own cold brew at home with or without a cold brew maker. To make cold brew, you don’t need a fancy cold brew maker. All you really need are your pre-grounds, a large mason jar or pitcher, and a cheesecloth. Place the water and grounds into the pitcher together, stir them up, and place a lid on top. Allow the pitcher to sit on the counter for 12 to 15 hours. Next, filter the coffee grounds through the cheese cloth into a bowl (or even a pour over instrument!) and enjoy! That’s it — best cold brew recipe is in bio. 

2. Make cold brew ice cubes. An iced coffee drink can quickly turn into a watery mess if you don’t drink it fast enough. Instead of throwing it out, try cold brew coffee ice cubes. It does take a day of preparation, but you’re then set for weeks.

3. Try a light roast cold brew. It’s often best to use older or lower quality beans to make cold brew because in the end most cold brew batches taste the same. But there is an exception if you use very FRESH & LIGHT ROAST beans. The cold brew offers new flavors that are worth trying — try it out and see if you notice a difference! 

BONUS TIP: Coffee Explorer with host Jen Stone, Licensed Quality Grader & CIEL founder, released a new episode all about cold brew (featuring yours truly). Give it a listen for extra cold brew tips & tricks (it's only 15 minutes). Link in bio!

How do you usually make cold brew? Would love to know in the comments!

The lever-driven espresso machine was brought about in 1947 by Achille Gaggia. This invention revolutionized espresso coffee in the home and cafe sphere.

Yet like, manual brew coffee, manual espresso brewing has experienced a sort of renaissance as many are going back to the basics in order to fully experience and appreciate the process of making their morning java. Manual brewing also provides a much more controlled environment, which is ideal for making excellent coffee and espresso.

One company that has taken on the task of bringing the manual espresso machine back is Flair Espresso. They are known for their elegant, yet simplistic lever espresso machines that produce flavorful espresso without any electricity. 

If you are someone who is fascinated by the process of espresso-making or rather you’re someone who wants to get into this particular coffee hobby, the Flair Pro 2 is a wonderful way to explore and get the full espresso-making experience.

It’s ultimately an art form of sorts that any true espresso-lover should experience. Full review is up on the blog✌️
