Peach chai tea combines the bold flavors of chai spices with the sweetness of peach. It’s made by brewing a chai spice base, adding peach puree, and mixing with milk. Sweeten and serve hot or cold for a refreshing treat.
2
Cook the peach: In a small saucepan, add the diced peach with about 1/4 cup of water. Cook over medium heat for 5-7 minutes until the peach softens and begins to break down. If using frozen peaches, cook them the same way.
3
Blend: Once the peach is softened, blend it in a blender or using an immersion blender until smooth. Set the peach puree aside.
4
Spices: In a separate saucepan, add the remaining 2 cups of water. Add the cinnamon stick, cloves, cardamom pods, and ginger slices (if using). Bring it to a simmer and let it cook for 5-7 minutes to infuse the water with the chai spices.
5
Add the tea bags: Once the spice water has simmered, add the black tea bags or loose leaf tea to the saucepan. Let it steep for 3-5 minutes, depending on how strong you like your tea.
6
Remove the tea bags or strain: Remove the tea bags or strain the tea to remove the spices and tea leaves.
7
Mix the peach puree with tea: Add the peach puree to the brewed chai tea and stir well to combine.
8
Add milk: Pour in your milk (dairy or non-dairy) and bring the mixture back to a simmer for another 2-3 minutes. Stir occasionally.
9
Sweeten to taste: Add honey, sugar, or any sweetener of your choice to taste. You can also add a splash of vanilla extract for extra flavor.
10
Strain and serve: If desired, strain the tea to remove any peach pulp or spices. Pour the tea into your favorite mug.

Garnish with a cinnamon stick or a slice of peach for a decorative touch.
