Ingredients
  

For the Lavender Cold Foam
  • 1 cup heavy cream Essential for achieving that luscious foam; no substitutes for the best texture.
  • 1/2 cup whole milk Thins the heavy cream for lighter foam; any milk can work, but texture may vary.
  • 2 tablespoons lavender syrup Sweetens the drink with floral notes; Monin lavender syrup is best, or make homemade with culinary-grade lavender.
  • few drops purple food coloring Optional; a little goes a long way to elevate the foam's visual appeal.
For the Iced Chai Base
  • 1/2 cup chai concentrate The flavorful base for your iced chai; homemade chai concentrate can also be used but must be chilled.
  • 1/2 cup milk Complements the chai and adds creaminess; standard 2% is recommended, but feel free to choose your favorite.
  • ice Ice Essential for serving; make sure to fill your glass generously for a refreshing chill.

Equipment

  • tall glass
  • frother or whisk
  • 16-ounce glass

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Iced Lavender Cream Chai
  1. Begin by chilling a tall glass in the fridge or freezer for about 5 minutes. In the glass, combine heavy cream, whole milk, and lavender syrup, using a frother or whisk. Froth the mixture until it becomes thick and pourable, resembling soft peaks; if desired, include a few drops of purple food coloring.
  2. Take a sturdy 16-ounce glass and pour in ½ cup of chilled chai concentrate, ensuring it has a rich spice aroma. Follow this with ½ cup of your preferred milk for a creamy base, stirring gently to unify the flavors.
  3. Fill the glass generously with ice, leaving a little room at the top for the foam.
  4. Slowly spoon the lavender cold foam over the iced drink, allowing it to float delicately on top.
