Infused Maple Chai Latte (A Cozy, Low-Dose Fall Sipper)

Warm spices, real maple, and a creamy chai base make this infused latte a calm, slow-sipping fall favorite. It is built around a measured tincture dose so you control exactly how much goes in each mug. For adults 21+ where cannabis is legal.

Key takeaways

• Makes 2 mugs at about 2.5 mg THC each when you use 5 mg of tincture total.
• Add the tincture off the heat so it blends in evenly.
• Effects of drinks can start sooner than baked edibles, but wait at least an hour before another.
• Label and store tincture away from kids and pets.

Ingredients

• 2 black chai tea bags
• 1 cup water
• 1 cup whole milk or oat milk
• 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• Pinch of ground ginger
• Cannabis tincture measured to 5 mg THC total (2.5 mg per mug)
• Cinnamon sticks, for serving

Instructions

1. Bring the water to a simmer and steep the chai bags for 4 minutes. Remove the bags.
2. Stir in the cinnamon, ginger, and maple syrup.
3. Add the milk and warm gently until steaming. Do not boil.
4. Take the pot off the heat. Stir in the tincture and whisk or froth for 30 seconds so it distributes evenly.
5. Pour into two mugs and top with a cinnamon stick.

Dosing and safety

Start low and go slow: 2.5 mg is a gentle starting point, and many people prefer to try half a mug first. Always measure tincture with the dropper marked for it and check your label for mg per milliliter. Wait at least an hour before having more. Label clearly, store securely away from kids and pets, and never drive or operate machinery after consuming. This is not medical advice. Cannabis is for adults 21+, so follow your local laws.

Frequently asked questions

How much THC is in each maple chai latte?

With 5 mg of tincture split between 2 mugs, each latte has about 2.5 mg THC. Check your tincture label for its mg-per-dose and measure carefully.

Can I make this iced?

Yes. Let the chai base cool, stir in the tincture, and pour over ice. Stir well since the tincture can settle.

Can I use infused maple syrup instead of tincture?

You can, but dose it by the label or your own lab-tested numbers, and still stir well so every mug gets an even amount.
