Ingredients
  

For the Chai

  • ½ cup chai concentrate
  • ½ cup oatmilk
  • 1 tbsp apple brown sugar syrup
  • 1 cup ice

For the Apple Cold Foam

  • 3 tbsp heavy cream
  • 2 tbsp 2% milk
  • 1 tbsp apple brown sugar syrup

For Garnish

  • Ground cinnamon

Instructions
 

  • In a small frothing cup, combine the heavy cream, milk, and apple brown sugar syrup.
  • Froth until thick, creamy, and pourable.
  • Fill a tall serving glass with ice.
  • Pour the chai concentrate over the ice.
  • Add the milk.
  • Stir in the apple brown sugar syrup until completely mixed.
  • Slowly pour the apple cold foam over the chai.
  • Finish with a light sprinkle of ground cinnamon.
  • Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Homemade apple brown sugar syrup provides the most authentic flavor.
  • Oat milk is the best dairy-free substitute because of its naturally creamy texture.
  • Make the cold foam just before serving for the fluffiest consistency.
  • Adjust the amount of syrup to make the drink sweeter or less sweet.
  • Use plenty of ice so the foam stays beautifully layered.
  • If you like a stronger chai flavor, increase the chai concentrate slightly while reducing the milk.
