Instructions

Heat the chai concentrate until hot but not boiling, about 2 minutes.
Stir in the pumpkin spice syrup into the hot chai concentrate.
Steam the whole milk until frothy and about 160F (71C).
Pour the steamed milk into the chai mixture, gently stir to combine, and serve immediately.

Tips

Use a milk frother or steam wand to create creamy steamed milk; for a dairy-free option, substitute with oat or almond milk.
