Some of you might be familiar with what is considered dirty Chai tea. It’s a Chai tea mixed with coffee and a little creamer. It sounds interesting, right? It’s actually really refreshing and the Chai spices are so good blended with the coffee.

We gave the Dirty Chai our own twist and created Chai Tea Cold Brew Recipe which is smooth and just perfectly sweetened.

As you all know by now, Dunkin’ Donuts new Cold Brew is a staple in our house. It’s incredibly easy to use and you can brew it in the refrigerator overnight! So try out this Chai Tea Cold brew if you want something refreshingly unique and delicious.

How To Make This Chai Tea Cold Brew Recipe

  • Prepare Dunkin’ Donuts Cold Brew. You can add spices like cinnamon and nutmeg to it while it steeps in the refrigerator for extra spice.
  • Combine chai tea, cream and coffee in a glass with ice and stir.
  • I also like to add it in a shaker and shake with ice for an extra frothy cold brew!

Cold Brew Vs Iced Coffee

Cold Brew recipes are made without heat, which creates lower acidity for a smoother, naturally sweet taste. Iced Coffee is brewed double strength then cooled, which creates a refreshing, lighter body.

Iced coffee is brewed hot and served cold. You chill hot coffee either by pouring it over ice, or refrigerating it for a few hours before serving. There are drawbacks to both methods, unfortunately. The former dilutes your brew quite a bit, and hours-old coffee is never going to taste super fresh.

Cold-brew coffee, however, is made by steeping coarsely ground coffee beans in room-temperature water for six to 12 hours. This creates a coffee concentrate you mix with cold water or milk.

Cold-brew devotees say it tastes smoother than typical iced coffee, and those who are sensitive to acid believe it is easier-drinking than hot coffee. According to some estimates, cold-brewed coffee is 67 percent less acidic than hot-brewed.

Tips For This Chai Tea Cold Brew Coffee Recipe

  • Pick a chai tea you like the taste of.
  • Let the coffee and tea steep for a few hours in the fridge, with the spices, for a deeper flavor.
  • Use a cocktail shaker to froth up the drink!
  • Serve in a copper mug, for extra chill and garnish with a stick of cinnamon.

    I just made this and it was so good! Also added some coconut milk & coconut sweetened condensed milk and it made it even better. Better dairy free iced drink
