Equipment

  • Medium saucepan
  • Whisk
  • Fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Ingredients

  • 2 cups whole milk (or milk alternative)
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons black tea leaves or 2 black tea bags
  • 1-2 tablespoons cannabis-infused honey or butter
  • 1 cinnamon stick
  • 4-5 green cardamom pods
  • 4 whole cloves
  • 1 -inch piece fresh ginger, sliced
  • 1 star anise (optional)
  • 2-3 tablespoons sugar (adjust to taste)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • In a medium saucepan, combine the water, cinnamon stick, cardamom pods, cloves, ginger slices, and star anise (if using). Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 5 minutes to release the spices' flavors.
  • Add the black tea leaves or tea bags to the saucepan and let it simmer for another 2-3 minutes. If using tea bags, remove them after brewing.
  • Pour in the milk and add the sugar. Stir well and heat the mixture until it’s hot but not boiling.
  • Add the cannabis-infused honey or butter to the saucepan and whisk until it is fully melted and incorporated into the chai mixture.
  • Remove the saucepan from heat and strain the chai through a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth into mugs to remove the spices and tea leaves.
  • Stir in the vanilla extract. Taste and adjust sweetness if needed. Serve hot and enjoy your relaxing Cannabis-Infused Chai Latte!

Notes

  • Adjust the amount of cannabis-infused honey or butter based on your tolerance and desired potency.
  • For a vegan version, use a plant-based milk such as almond, soy, or oat milk.
  • The chai can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat before serving.
