Spiced Chai Smoothie

Who loves hot chai? Maybe the question should be, who doesn't?

I’m definitely a chai lover. There’s something about the combination of warm spices and creaminess that is SO cozy.

This spiced chai smoothie is ALL THAT plus we kicked it up a few notches by adding some nutrient dense whole foods like decaf chai tea, chia, oats, soy milk, banana, and date.

Adjust the spices and sweetness to your liking and you can enjoy chai in a whole (food) new way! See what I did there? Hehe! Breakfast, snack, post work-out, dessert, this allergen friendly smoothie will be sure to satisfy and satiate any time of day.

Bon Appetit!
