I remember the first time I made this Cinnamon Chai Coconut Brew on a chilly autumn afternoon.

The aroma of the spices filled my kitchen and instantly lifted my spirits.

It’s not just a drink; it’s a ritual for me, a moment to pause and savor.

I love how the creamy coconut milk pairs beautifully with the fragrant spices, making every sip feel indulgent yet nourishing.

  • No animal products - completely vegan and cruelty-free
  • Perfect for beginners and experienced cooks alike

Ingredients & Substitutions

Coconut milk is the star here, bringing richness and creaminess. If you’re looking for a lighter version, you can substitute with almond milk, but it won’t be as creamy. Chai tea bags are versatile—experiment with different blends to find your favorite!

Tips & Notes

  • I love to sprinkle a little extra cinnamon on top before serving for that extra touch.
  • If you want a little kick, try adding a pinch of cayenne pepper!

Recipe Variations

  • Sometimes I’ll add a splash of almond extract for a twist on the flavor.
  • Feel free to add a dollop of whipped coconut cream on top for a treat!

Storage & Freezing

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Just give it a good stir or shake before enjoying again, as it may separate a bit.

Frequently Asked Questions
