From Yunomi Tea Merchant, Ian: This coconut spiced Hojicha chai was inspired by my upbringing in Hawaii, combined with my love for Japan and Japanese tea.

For a 200cc cup, start by gently warming 140cc of milk (Almond or Oat milk is recommended) and frothing it until you get a nice, creamy foam. While that’s happening, dissolve 3-5g of Hojichai powder in 10cc of hot water. This is also the perfect time to add a touch of sugar or your sweetener of choice. I’d recommend about a small piece of brown sugar, maybe one cube, depending on how sweet you like it.
\n
Once the milk is frothy and ready, carefully pour the Hojichai mixture along the inside edge of the cup to keep that lovely foam intact. It’s all about the smooth layers and the cozy balance of flavors! Enjoy!
