dirty chai latte A little sweet, a lot spiced, and topped with cloud-like frothed (or warmed) milk, a chai latte is black tea steeped with milk as well as cinnamon, cardamom, cloves, and often black pepper, fennel, and ginger. Traditionally sweetened with a bit of honey, the chai lattes available widely in the Western world tend to be cloying with syrups and artificial flavors that don’t honor the Indian art of steeping the tea with whole spices. To find a Primal and Primal-keto version, forego the coffee house line and make your own at home.

What Is a Dirty Chai Latte?

A dirty chai latte is the beautiful marriage of a chai latte spiked with a shot (or two) of espresso. If you have an espresso machine at home, simply add a shot or two of espresso to the recipe below. We used instant espresso powder and recently boiled water to make our dirty chai latte as simple as possible—no espresso machine or stovetop espresso maker necessary. We did use a milk frother to add volume to the almond milk, but you can also simply heat up the milk you’d like to use, or you can use a handheld mixer to whip air into your milk. The point is to use what you have on hand at home. Note: We used almond milk, but this recipe would also be delicious with coconut milk. If you’re not dairy-free, feel free to use whole milk.

Ingredients

1 tsp. instant espresso powder
1/2 cup hot water
2 scoops Primal Kitchen Chai Tea Collagen Keto Latte
3/4 cup almond milk (or milk of choice)
1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon

Instructions

Place espresso powder in the bottom of a large mug. Pour hot water over espresso, and stir until the espresso powder dissolves completely in the water.

Add chai tea keto latte mix, and stir until the mix dissolves completely. Using a fork and whisking the espresso with the mix can help it incorporate faster.

Froth your milk of choice, or heat it in a small saucepan on the stove until it’s warm.

Warrior Fit Testimonials

First, I want to say thank you for convincing me to do Tabata! I was struggling to lose weight and Finally I found something that helped! I really appreciate your coaching! - Craig T.

Ever since I was convinced to do Tabata I have seen huge results, I lost 6 pounds and gained energy in the first 3 weeks. I have been working out for 3 months before I decided to do Tabata and I struggled to lose weight. At first I thought "How am I losing weight by bringing my heart rate up then cooling down then bringing it up again?" I don’t know how it works but it does! Thank you!! - Theresa F.

The first day of Tabata, I wondered WHAT AM I DOING - I AM 56 !! Five weeks later I knew that it was what I needed. I learned that I could push myself well beyond my comfort zone and feel good later. I have a marked improvement in physical as well as emotional endurance. - Lyn C.

When I was first told about Tabata I was very excited from the word go, however that excitement stemmed from the fact that I had no clue what it meant. I missed the first week of class b/c I was traveling for work so when I came in during the 2nd week I had some making it up to do. It was hard at first b/c my body wasn't used to working out at such a fast pace, but once I got into a rhythm I started to feel very good. These classes are no joke. If you stick with it you will leave there feeling stronger, healthier and overall better about yourself and what you've accomplished. I would recommend these classes to anyone. Darrin is a great trainer and he'll keep you going with his energy. - Jami L.
