Ways to Use Chai Simple Syrup
This versatile syrup can be enjoyed in so many ways. Stir it into hot or iced milk for a cozy treat, add it to smoothies, oatmeal, or even baked goods like muffins and loaves for subtle warmth.

However you use it, this chai simple syrup can instantly elevate recipes with its beautifully layered spice and natural sweetness.
How to Make Caffeine Free Chai Simple Syrup
Making this simple syrup is straightforward and delicious. You’ll start by gently heating water and sugar on the stove, adding in vanilla and a blend of spices. This caffeine free chai comes together thanks to ground cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, nutmeg, and cloves. Stir everything on a medium to low heat until fully combined and aromatic. Once it’s done, bottle the syrup and store in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. You can use it immediately, but just know it will thicken up into more of a syrup once cooled and chilled.
