Ingredients for the latte:

• 1/4 cup chai concentrate (optional)
• Brown sugar, to taste
• Ice cubes
• 1 cup milk of choice
• 1 teaspoon organic ceremonial matcha

Ingredients for the pumpkin cream foam:

• 3 tablespoons heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons milk
• 1 tablespoon pumpkin syrup
• 1 tablespoon vanilla syrup
• A pinch of pumpkin spice to sprinkle on top

Method:

1. Build the matcha chai base: If you’re using chai, pour the concentrate into a glass. Sweeten with brown sugar to taste, then add ice cubes.
2. Add milk and matcha: Pour in 1 cup of milk over the ice, then sift the matcha into the glass. Whisk well (or froth) until fully dissolved and smooth.
3. Make the pumpkin cream foam: In a bowl, combine cream, milk, pumpkin syrup and vanilla syrup. Whisk or froth until light and foamy.
4. Top and finish: Spoon the pumpkin foam over the matcha chai latte and dust with pumpkin spice for the final touch.

Tip:

For a bolder taste, adjust the matcha or pumpkin syrup to your preference. A pinch of cinnamon can also add extra warmth.
