Does Lavender Taste Good In Coffee?

I first made a Lavender Latte, which took me by surprise. I honestly didn't think I would like lavender in my coffee, but I was wrong.

I really love the addition of lavender. It's got a delightful floral flavor that isn't overpowering.

Add in the warming spices of chai to the lavender latte, and you've got a wonderful combination of flavors.

What Is A Dirty Chai Latte?

A Dirty Chai Latte is a combination of chai tea and a latte. It has a shot of espresso and frothed milk. The iced version is served cold over ice and there's no frothy topping.

For this Iced Lavender Dirty Chai Latte recipe, I used cold brew coffee, chai tea, lavender simple syrup, and oat milk.

💭 Tips

If you want frothy milk on top, you may want to use soy milk or another plant-based milk. Oat milk doesn't froth very well.
You can use espresso instead of coffee. I used cold brew coffee because that's what I normally drink. It's less acidic than regular coffee.
