Iced Chai Latte

Ingredients

• 1 cup water
• 2 orange pekoe tea bags (a good strong, aromatic one)
• 1 3" stick of cinnamon
• 6 cardamom pods
• 5 whole cloves
• 2 cups soy milk or almond milk
• 1 tablespoons organic unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
• ice cubes

Instructions

1. In a small stainless steel pot, simmer the water, tea bags and spices for 10 minutes, covered.
2. Meanwhile, whisk the cocoa, sugar and soy or almond milk together (if you heat it a little in the microwave, the cocoa will mix in better). Add this to the tea mixture after it has simmered 10 minutes, and then simmer on low 10 minutes more.
3. Strain through a sieve and chill the mixture.
4. Serve in two tall glasses over ice cubes.
