This homemade Keto Chai Tea Latte in a mug tastes better than Starbucks

I love comforting and warm drinks this time of year.

If you do too, make this (better than) Starbucks keto chai tea latte! Chai tea is a bold and flavorful black tea infused with delicious spiced flavors like cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, cloves, and black pepper. Adding steamed “milk” makes for a cozy latte that’s perfect to enjoy on a chilly day.

Let’s make a keto chai latte!

Starbucks has a yummy version that’s unfortunately full of sugar and not at all keto, so today I’m sharing how you can EASILY make your own that tastes even better in my opinion, and is low in carbs! Plus, you’ll be saving money by making yours at home any time you’re craving one.

Brew, sweeten, froth!

Some recipes online include buying all the spices and brewing them with black tea. I think a great shortcut is to use tea bags that have all those yummy chai spices already included. I recently asked a Starbucks barista how she would make a keto-friendly chai latte and she suggested Tazo chai tea as a great base for a latte. She advised using two tea bags to yield a stronger result when brewing.

Sweeten to taste using your favorite keto sweetener. I used liquid Stevia drops in my latte, and for my milk, I used coconut cream from a can. It was so YUMMY and creamy! You can also use almond milk or heavy whipping cream, but you’ll need to adjust the nutritional info.

I happen to have this little handheld milk frother and LOVE it. It makes great homemade lattes! The coconut cream frothed up nicely, too. You can alternatively do your best with a whisk or even use an immersion blender.

    Oooh, yum! Thanks for sharing!

    • Lina D

      Sure! Enjoy!

  2. Jocelyn

    Yummy! Definitely make again. I used whipping cream instead of coconut.

    • Lina D (Hip2Save Sidekick)

      Great! Thanks for sharing Jocelyn!

    Can this be done iced and do we need t0 adjust it

    • Jennifer (Hip Sidekick)

      I would totally ice it! Just get it iced before adding the coconut cream. If it’s not creamy enough cold, then add heavy whipping cream. It would be yummy!

  4. Syd

    Can I use the Keurig chai latte for this?

    • Lina D (Hip2Save Sidekick)

      Ya I bet that would be tasty too!

  5. RayRay

    Any tips on how to froth the milk without this device?

    • Amber (Hip Sidekick)

      Hi there! You could also try with a whisk or even use an immersion blender. Hoping that helps!

  6. Maribel

    I made this tonight with an off brand off Chai, I should have spent the extra dollar for Tazo. The flavor wasn’t strong enough even with 2 bags.

    Also I blended coconut milk to add to the Chai. It wasn’t frothy enough.

    Trial and error
