Today, I’m excited to share with you my recipe for Velvet Chai Eggnog, a decadent twist on a classic winter beverage. The rich flavors of chai tea combined with creamy eggnog create a velvety drink that’s perfect for sipping by the fireplace or sharing at festive gatherings.

To start, pour the eggnog into a saucepan over medium heat. Add the chai tea bags and cinnamon sticks, allowing the flavors to infuse into the eggnog as it warms up. Stir occasionally to prevent scorching, and let the mixture simmer for about 10 minutes.

Once the eggnog is fragrant with chai spices, remove the tea bags and cinnamon sticks. Stir in the vanilla extract to enhance the flavors further. Allow the Velvet Chai Eggnog to simmer for another 5 minutes, ensuring it’s heated through and well blended.

When ready to serve, pour the Velvet Chai Eggnog into mugs. Top each mug with a dollop of whipped cream for a luxurious finish. The warm, spiced aroma of chai tea combined with the creamy texture of eggnog creates a truly indulgent drink that’s perfect for any holiday occasion.
