And each of these spices is packed full of nutrition and anti-inflammatory properties, so you can drink up guilt-free. Use organic ingredients whenever possible.
 
Ingredients:

    24 ounces unsweetened almond or soy milk
    1 teaspoon ground cardamom
    ¾ teaspoon ground cinnamon
    ½ teaspoon ground allspice
    ½ teaspoon finely grated fresh ginger
    ¼ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
    1 small pinch coarse ground black pepper

Optional sweeteners:
    1 tablespoon raw honey
 
Recipe: Combine all of the ingredients (except sweeteners) in a small pot over medium heat and whisk to combine. Heat over medium-low heat 5-7 minutes until the flavors have come together; serve immediately. Sweeten to taste.

Chai Tea Variation: Add 1 organic unflavored black or green teabag to each hot serving. Steep for 5 minutes; discard teabag before serving.

Chai Latte Variation: Add 1-2 shots of organic espresso or strong organic coffee to each serving.
