HOMEMADE CHAI TEA LATTE

Are you a tea drinker?

I have always loved to drink tea, and even more now that I am pregnant.

It is the perfect pick-me-up and way to add a dash of flavor to your daily routine.

I love sitting down with a warm cup of tea in the morning, late afternoon or right before bed to calm myself down.

It really is the perfect drink at ay point in your day, especially if you pair it with a warm pumpkin muffin or a slice of bread.

What I also love is being able to make this drink at home. I control what goes in it and I can adjust it to my tastes. 

You also can add a shot of espresso and make this a dirty chai latte.

I love making this Homemade Chai Tea Latte and sometimes this Instant Pot Chai Tea Latte

Tazo Chai blend

Today I am partnering with Tazo Tea to bring you this Homemade Chai Tea Latte, using their Tazo Classic Chai Tea.

A homemade chai latte have always been my favorite during the colder months of the year.

Now that fall is upon us it will be a nice treat to enjoy while sitting in the backyard, enjoying the crisp fall air.

The nice thing about Tazo is the variety of teas that they offer.

There really is something for everyone at any point in the day.

Awake English Breakfast is a breakfast-style black tea of malty boldness & bright flavor, invigorating any time of day.

I just love them all.

At Tazo, tea is a celebration of flavor and aroma that adds a little excitement to your day.

They focus their teas around taste, crafting them with exhilarating, unexpected flavor blends that delight the senses. With Tazo, you don’t just sip, you Sip Joyfully.

Since the baby will be arriving around September 30th I know I will need a good stock of teas to get me through those first few months of no sleep.
