Chai White Hot Chocolate

 

I am not a tea drinker. I have tried various teas, hot and cold, and I am just not a fan, with the exception of chai tea latte. It probably has something to do with the addition of the milk with the tea that makes me enjoy and it is not just straight tea. Whatever the reason is, I have been enjoying using chai tea in various drinks. Click here to check out some of my other chai tea recipes.

This chai tea drink combines white hot chocolate and chai tea for a warm, cozy and relaxing winter drink. To make this drink a bit more decadent you can top it with some whipped cream and a dash of ground cinnamon.
