This recipe makes a small batchabout one quart. I need to double it for my family! You can find dried dandelion root and the chai spices in the bulk herb section of your local health food store or herb store. Once the herbs have simmered you can add any thick, rich milk of your choice such as homemade raw almond milk, hemp milk, cashew cream, or fresh raw cream (from pastured cows). I quickly whipped up a batch of vanilla cashew milk in my Vitamix for the photos here. I usually fill ¾ of the mug with tea and ¼ with milk. I then stir in a small spoonful of raw honey to sweeten it. My children and I love this tea so much and I hope you do too!
