Ingredients
Scale
Lavender Cold Foam
- 2 tbsp heavy cream
- 1 tbsp whole milk
- 1 tbsp lavender syrup
- 1–2 drops purple food coloring (optional for purple color)
Iced Chai
- ½ cup chai tea concentrate
- ½ cup milk of choice (2% milk recommended)
- Ice (as needed)
Instructions
- Make the lavender cold foam: Add the heavy cream, whole milk, lavender syrup, and optional purple food coloring to a small jar or container. Use a milk frother to froth the mixture for 10-20 seconds until it becomes thick and foamy. Set this lavender-infused foam aside.
- Prepare the iced chai: Fill a tall glass with ice cubes. Pour the chai tea concentrate over the ice, followed by the milk of your choice. Stir gently to combine all liquids evenly.
- Assemble and serve: Spoon the prepared lavender cold foam on top of the iced chai mixture. Serve immediately and enjoy the creamy, floral layers of this iced beverage.
Notes
- Use cold milk and chilled chai concentrate for the best iced experience.
- The purple food coloring is optional and serves to enhance the lavender foam’s visual appeal.
- You can substitute whole milk with any milk alternative such as almond, oat, or soy milk.
- If you don’t have a milk frother, shaking the mixture vigorously in a jar can create some foam, though it may not be as thick.
- Adjust lavender syrup quantity according to your sweetness and floral preference.
