A quick and easy iced pumpkin chai latte made with oat milk, pumpkin puree, and chai tea. This cozy fall drink comes together in under 10 minutes and is perfect for any time of day.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 chai tea bags
  • 2 tablespoons pumpkin puree (100% pure, not pumpkin pie filling)
  • 1 cup oat milk (barista-style preferred)
  • 12 tablespoons maple syrup (adjust to taste)
  • 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • Ice (as needed)

Instructions

  1. Brew the chai tea: Bring 1/2 cup water to a boil. Place 2 chai tea bags in a heatproof mug or measuring cup and pour the hot water over them. Let steep for 5 minutes.
  2. Mix the pumpkin base: In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons pumpkin puree, 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice, and 1-2 tablespoons maple syrup. Stir until smooth.
  3. Froth the oat milk: Pour 1 cup oat milk into a mason jar or shaker. Add 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract if using. Secure the lid and shake vigorously for about 30 seconds until frothy.
  4. Assemble the latte: Fill a tall glass with ice. Remove the chai tea bags from the brewed tea (squeeze gently). Pour the brewed chai over the ice. Add the pumpkin mixture and stir until fully combined.
  5. Top with frothed oat milk: Pour the frothed oat milk over the chai-pumpkin mixture. Use a spoon to hold back the foam and pour the liquid milk first, then spoon the foam on top.
  6. Finish and serve: Sprinkle a pinch of pumpkin pie spice or cinnamon on top. Serve immediately with a straw.

Notes

For best results, use room temperature pumpkin puree to avoid clumping. Shake oat milk well before measuring. Adjust sweetness to taste. For a hot version, skip the ice and warm the oat milk before frothing.
