Is a chamomile latte caffeine-free?

Yes, as long as you use pure chamomile. Chamomile is an herb, not a true tea, so it contains no caffeine. Check the label on blends, since some include green or black tea.

What is the best milk for a chamomile tea latte?

Whole dairy milk and barista-style oat milk froth the best and taste the creamiest. Coconut and almond milk also work, with a lighter foam.

Can I use chamomile tea bags for a latte?

Yes. Use two tea bags in half a cup of water so the tea is strong enough to stand up to the milk.

Can I make a chamomile latte ahead of time?

You can brew and sweeten the chamomile concentrate up to a day ahead and keep it in the fridge. Heat and froth the milk just before serving for the best foam.

How do I make a chamomile latte without a frother?

Shake cold milk in a jar with the lid on for about 30 seconds, then remove the lid and microwave for about 30 seconds. A French press or a whisk also works.

Chamomile Tea Latte: Cozy 10-Minute Recipe (Any Milk)

Description

A creamy, caffeine-free chamomile tea latte made with strong-brewed chamomile, honey, cinnamon, and frothy milk of your choice.

Ingredients

Scale

½ cup (4 oz) water
2 chamomile tea bags (or 1 tablespoon dried chamomile flowers)
½ cup (4 oz) milk of choice
1–2 teaspoons honey (or maple syrup)
1 pinch ground cinnamon, plus more for dusting
1 pinch vanilla powder (optional)

Instructions

Pour the just-boiled water over the chamomile, cover, and steep for 5 to 7 minutes.
Remove the tea bags and stir in the honey and cinnamon.
Heat the milk over medium-low heat until steaming, without boiling.
Froth the milk until foamy.
Pour the milk into the tea, spoon the foam on top, and dust with cinnamon.

Notes

For an iced version, let the sweetened tea cool, pour over ice, and top with cold milk. For a dairy-free latte, barista-style oat milk froths best.
