Flavorings & Sweeteners
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Ice Cream
- 2 cups vanilla ice cream
Instructions
- Combine liquids: In a large bowl, whisk together the brewed chai tea, whole milk, and heavy cream until well blended.
- Add flavorings: Stir in the sugar, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg, mixing thoroughly until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is uniform.
- Incorporate ice cream: Gently fold in the vanilla ice cream. Allow it to melt slightly while stirring to create a smooth, creamy punch.

Notes
- You can brew your chai tea with your preferred blend or use store-bought chai concentrate for convenience.
- Adjust sugar quantity according to your taste or dietary needs.
- For a dairy-free version, substitute whole milk, heavy cream, and ice cream with plant-based alternatives.
- Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor, as the ice cream will continue to melt if left standing.
