Move Over Coffee. Tea Lattes Are Taking Over!
Coffee drinkers have options galore when it comes to jazzing up their coffee drink. But what about tea drinkers? Why shouldn’t they have the same plethora of options? We don’t mean to discount the greatness of the ever popular chai latte, but tea drinkers deserve more on the menu. And that’s why we went on a search to help tea lovers everywhere have the right to choose. Check out our fave 14 tea lattes to spice up your morning routine.
1. Iced Matcha: Go green, eat your greens and drink your green tea. With a little milk and whipped cream, we think you will happily convert to drinking the green stuff. (via Girl Cooks World)
2. Iced Coconut: Coconut milk is the star of this chai latte. Make it hot or cold depending on your mood. (via Kumquat)
3. Earl Grey: Sometimes this sipper is called the London Fog latte. Release your inner Brit for the day, and say ‘ello to this Earl Grey tea latte. (via Cookie Monster Cooking)
4. Paleo Chai: We’re excited to hear that cavemen eaters can still enjoy a chai latte. This is a protein-packed drink, with raw egg and all. (via Elana’s Pantry)
5. Apple Cinnamon: Think of it as grown-up apple cider. Pair this with some apple cinnamon oatmeal and getting out of bed just got easier. (via Running to the Kitchen)
6. Maple Cinnamon Chamomile: This flowery tea turns into a fall beverage with a pinch of cinnamon and a dash of maple syrup. Sleepy-time tea it is not. (via Pickles + Honey)
7. Choco Chai: Hot Chocolate meets Chai Latte on a cold, winter day. They fall in love, get married and have a beautiful baby named Choco Chai. (via With a Spin)
8. Marshmallow Tea Latte: So simple and delicious, we are kicking ourselves for not thinking of it earlier: Just add marshmallows to your tea! (via Oh Joy)
