Iced Chai
- ½ cup chai tea concentrate

- Use any milk substitute such as almond or oat milk for a dairy-free option.
- Purple food coloring is optional and purely for aesthetic purposes.
- Chai tea concentrate can be purchased ready-made or homemade for best flavor.
- Serve immediately for the best texture and taste of the foam.
