Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups vanilla ice cream (slightly softened)
  • 1/2 cup whole milk (more for a thinner shake)
  • 1 tablespoon chai spice blend (or 1 chai tea bag, steeped and cooled)
  • 2 tablespoons honey or simple syrup (adjust to taste)
  • Pinch of salt
  • Whipped cream and a dusting of cinnamon, for serving (optional)

Method
 

  1. If using a chai tea bag, steep it in 2 tablespoons of hot water for 5 minutes, then let it cool completely before using.
  2. Add the ice cream, milk, chai spice blend or cooled tea concentrate, honey, and salt to a blender.
  3. Blend on high for 20–30 seconds until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides if needed.
  4. Taste and adjust — add more chai spice for a bolder flavor or more honey if it's too spiced.
  5. Pour into a chilled glass, top with whipped cream and a dusting of cinnamon, and serve immediately.
