Chai-Spiced Oat Milk Latte - Vegan recipe hero image

I remember the first time I sipped a chai latte on a crisp autumn morning, wrapped in a blanket and watching the leaves fall.

It felt like my soul was warming up!

Now, I like to recreate that experience at home, and this oat milk version has become my favorite.

Oat milk is just so creamy and comforting, and the spices?

They’re like a little dance on your palate.

Here’s how I make it.

What Makes This Recipe Special

  • Made with simple, plant-based ingredients that are easy to find
  • No animal products - completely vegan and cruelty-free
  • Perfect for beginners and experienced cooks alike
  • Delicious results that everyone will love, vegan or not

Ingredients & Substitutions

Oat milk is my favorite for creaminess, but you could use almond or soy milk too. Just make sure to choose unsweetened if you want to control the sweetness. The spices can be adjusted based on your preference—feel free to add more ginger for a kick!

Tips & Notes

  • I love keeping a batch of homemade oat milk in the fridge for quick lattes. It’s super easy to make!
  • If you want to make it a bit indulgent, a splash of coconut cream on top is divine.

Recipe Variations

  • Sometimes I’ll add a pinch of nutmeg for a different flavor profile during the holidays.
  • You can also swap the maple syrup for agave or date syrup if you want to change it up.

Storage & Freezing

If you have any leftovers, store the chai tea in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days. Just reheat it gently and mix with fresh oat milk when you’re ready for another cup.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make this chai latte without caffeine?

Absolutely! Just use a caffeine-free chai tea or even a spiced herbal tea blend. It’ll still be comforting and delicious.

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1

    Start by boiling the water in a small saucepan over medium heat. Once it’s bubbling, add the chai tea bags, cinnamon stick, cloves, sliced ginger, and black peppercorns if you’re using them.

  2. 2

    Reduce the heat and let the tea steep for about 5-7 minutes. The longer it steeps, the bolder the flavor. Just keep an eye on it!

  3. 3

    While the tea is steeping, warm the oat milk in another saucepan over low heat. You don’t want it to boil—just heat it gently until it’s steaming.

  4. 4

    Once the tea is ready, remove the tea bags and strain out the spices if you used loose leaf. Stir in the maple syrup and vanilla extract.

  5. 5

    Now, pour the chai tea into your favorite mugs, filling them about halfway, then top with the warmed oat milk. You can froth the milk if you want, but I like it just as is.

  6. 6

    Give it a gentle stir, and you can sprinkle a little extra cinnamon on top if you’re feeling fancy. Sip slowly and enjoy!
