Recipe Rundown

I’ve recently gotten into chai lattes, and like most drinks I enjoy, I usually go for the iced version—probably because I live in Florida. I wanted to create something that felt a little more spring-inspired, and strawberry felt like the perfect addition. It’s an unexpectedly great combo with chai, and the cinnamon on top really pulls it all together.

If you don’t have a milk frother yet, I highly recommend grabbing one! They’re inexpensive and make it so easy to recreate café-style drinks at home. Cold foam is one of my favorite things to make with it, and this strawberry version is seriously good. Once you try it, you’ll want to add it to everything.

FAQ

Q: Can I make this drink dairy-free?
A: Absolutely! Swap the heavy cream and milk for oat milk, almond milk, or any non-dairy alternatives. Use a dairy-free creamer for the cold foam to keep it creamy.

Q: Do I have to froth the cold foam?
A: For best results, yes! Frothing creates that amazing café-style foam. Use a handheld frother, electric frother, or even shake it vigorously in a jar with a tight lid.

Q: What kind of chai tea should I use?
A: Any strong chai blend works—look for black tea-based chai with cinnamon, cardamom, and cloves for the best flavor. You can even use a concentrate, just skip the steeping step.

Q: Can I use fresh strawberries instead of syrup?
A: Yes! Blend 1–2 ripe strawberries with your milk and cream, then strain before frothing for a fresh berry twist.

Sprinkle of Fun

Turn your drink break into a little adventure! Make this Iced Chai Latte with Strawberry Cold Foam, pour it into your cutest to-go cup, and head to the park for some feel-good springtime fun.

Take your favorite blanket, a book you’ve been meaning to finish, or your journal and just sit under a tree while you sip. Enjoy the spring breeze and listen to the world around you—birds chirping, kids laughing, flowers blooming.

Bonus idea: bring sidewalk chalk, bubble wands, or a mini nature scavenger hunt checklist if you’re bringing little ones. This drink tastes even better with sunshine and a sprinkle of fun!
