The mild, smoky heat of chipotle chile is a perfect addition to the spices in a traditional chai mix. This blend is perfect for cold, wet winter days when you're in need some belly warming comfort. 

Definitely nontraditional, Chipotle Chai is not for the faint at heart. 

Choose a black tea such as Assam to complete the beverage or for a caffeine-free treat, Rooibos is a good substitution for a black tea.

Use 1 heaping tablespoon of chai spice per 12 oz of water. Simmer for 3-5 minutes then steep with 2-3 teaspoons of black tea for another 3-4 minutes. Add milk and sweetener to taste.
