Hey! It’s a morning staple! This week, however, Miss F-Bomb didn’t bother making Bourbon Cream and instead went straight to a shot of Bourbon in her Chai Tea with Bourbon.

Ingredients

Chai Tea:

3 cups of hot water
4 bags of black tea
4 crushed cardamom pods, green
4 crushed whole allspice berries
3 or 4 whole cloves
1 star anise
2 whole cinnamon sticks
1 tsp ground ginger
¼-½ tsp ground nutmeg
2 tsp vanilla extract (or homemade bourbon vanilla extract…since Miss F-Bomb is literally the bomb!)
3 cups of vanilla almond milk (Miss F-Bomb makes her own!)
¼ cup honey or raw honey…could also substitute agave

Bourbon:

1 oz Bulleit Bourbon

Instructions

Chai Tea:

In a medium saucepan, combine the water, tea bags, spices, and vanilla.
Bring everything to a boil over medium to medium/high heat and then reduce to a simmer.
Stir in the almond milk and honey and whisk to combine.
Remove from heat and allow it to sit and steep for 10 minutes. For a stronger flavor, cover and let sit to steep.
Strain through a fine sieve or cheesecloth (or both) to remove the tea bags and spices.
Strain a second time if needed until only liquid remains.
Pour into a mug and top with bourbon cream.

Chai Tea with Bourbon:

Prepare the Chai Tea.
Pour in room temperature Bourbon…as much as you need to get your through the day.
