Chef's Tips
For a stronger chai flavor, simmer the spices for a longer time (up to 10 minutes).
Use a milk frother to create a thicker, more luxurious foam for your latte.
Adjust the amount of sugar or honey to your preference.
Experiment with other spices like cloves, star anise, or fennel seeds for a unique flavor profile.
