Ingredients

  • 3 oz. chai tea concentrate
  • Ice
  • 6 oz. oat milk, divided
  • 1 oz. gingerbread syrup, store-bought or homemade with recipe below
  • Pumpkin pie spice, for topping

Gingerbread Syrup

  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoon molasses
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ΒΌ teaspoon ground allspice
  • β…› teaspoon ground nutmeg

Instructions

  • Add chai concentrate to an ice-filled glass. Pour 3 oz. oat milk over the concentrate.
  • You can either use an electric frother, hand mixer, blender, or jar to turn the rest of the oat milk into froth. Just add the remaining 3 oz. oat milk and gingerbread syrup together and froth, mix, blend, or shake until the mixture froths up a bit. Note that oat milk doesn't froth that well and the froth doesn't last long. See notes for alternative if you don't want oat milk froth.
  • Pour oat milk froth over drink. Top with pumpkin pie spice.

Gingerbread Syrup

  • Put all the ingredients in a medium saucepan and bring mixture to a boil.
  • Once boiling, lower heat and let simmer for about 10 minutes, until sugar is completely dissolved and mixture has thickened a bit.
  • Pour syrup into a mason jar or bowl and place in fridge to cool completely before using. Syrup will continue to thicken as it cools. It should keep fresh in your fridge for about a month.

Notes

  • If you don't want the froth, you can simply mix the gingerbread syrup with the chai concentrate and then pour all 6 oz. of oat milk over it.
  • Note that different brands of chai concentrate have different amounts of sugar in them, so you may need to experiment to get the sweetness level you want.
  • The gingerbread syrup recipe makes enough for about 4 of these drinks.
  • See post body heading "how to make drink lower sugar" to learn how to make the drink with chai tea bags instead.
  • See body of post for lots of drink customization ideas!
