Expert Tips
It is best to make this iced latte when you are ready to drink. Making it ahead of time will melt the ice and dilute the tea.
Freeze some chai concentrate in ice cube trays and use chai ice cubes instead of plain ice for an added kick. This is particularly important if you want to make this drink ahead of time, as it will prevent it from getting diluted and give you that strong chai flavor.
Adjust the amount of milk used. For a stronger chai flavor, use more concentrate, and for a subtle flavor, use more milk. Similarly, change the type of milk as per your preference. My milk of choice to make it vegan is oat milk.
Chai concentrate is already sweetened, so there is no need to add any sweetener. However, if you want it sweeter, add more sweeteners of your choice. You can use brown sugar, maple syrup, or even simple syrup.

Most kinds of milk work for this recipe. Dairy milk gives it a creamy taste; however, you can use any kind of milk that is dairy-free to make vegan iced chai. Plant-based milk like oat milk, soy milk, coconut milk, and almond milk works really well for this recipe.
