Calm chamomile with vanilla and ice cold non-dairy milk. One sip Of this chamomile iced latte is soothing, refreshing, and hydrating–all the forces we need more of these days.
You make a double strength brew of chamomile tea, sweeten it to your liking, pour it into a glass full of ice, and then top it off with your favourite milk and a shake of cinnamon. Sip it outside on some grass if you can :)
We’re having another chilled out weekend at home (as part of our chilled out summer at home hehe). We’re doing some home projects that we’ve been putting off and cooking a few things from this beautiful cookbook. Leaving you with this refreshing sip!
Chamomile Iced Latte with Vanilla
Cool and calming chamomile iced latte with vanilla. This is a refreshing summer drink that's perfect for relaxing into the afternoon.
Servings 1
Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons loose chamomile tea or 2 tea bags
- ½ cup boiling water
- agave nectar or other sweetener, to taste
- 1½ cups ice
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup unsweetened non-dairy milk
- ground cinnamon for sprinkling on top
Notes
- If you tend to have sweetened, vanilla-flavoured non-dairy milk in stock at your house, you can skip the vanilla and sweetening step! :)
- Your glass needs to have a minimum 2 cup-capacity.
Instructions
- Place a tea strainer in a liquid measuring cup. Measure the chamomile into the strainer and pour the boiling water over top. Let the chamomile steep for 4 minutes. Once the 4 minutes is up, remove the tea strainer and sweeten the chamomile to your liking.
- Fill your serving glass with the ice and pour the chamomile tea over top. Add the vanilla extract and non-dairy milk to the glass and stir to combine. Dust the top of the chamomile iced latte with cinnamon if you like. Enjoy!

Sou,
This was super yummy! I kept it warm but did everything else. My new favorite way to drink chamomile tea.
Well, I tried this..it was really weird and tasted awful…maybe I overstepped the herb a bit. I drink herbal brews daily, and I know their flavours pretty well, but chamomile can be exceptionally bitter unless it’s brewed exactly right. Mea culpa, I think! I ended up giving it to the dogs; they loved it (anything with any kind milk they’ll drink eagerly!).
Feeding it to the dogs – what every recipe developer loves to hear
Perfect!!!! I feel cooler and more relaxed already!
Chamomile is also reported to support health in so many ways, one of which
just uncovered is thyroid cancer prevention. Who knew!
Love, love, love your work/recipes/photos.
