Dairy-Free Chai Tea

Chai tea has always been one of my favorite warm beverages, but all that dairy can make me feel heavy and bloated. [caption id="attachment_662" align="alignleft" width="134"] Shelley Butler Integrative Nutrition Health Coach[/caption] I've been trying for a while to create a dairy-free version, and I think I finally perfected it.  This version has all the flavor without the heaviness of the original.  I used essential oils, but you could certainly substitute by seeping whole versions of spices like cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, and clove.  These warming spices can help promote heart health, reduce blood sugar levels, aid digestion, and promote weight loss!         Dairy-Free Chai Tea Yield: 12-15 cups Ingredients 8 chai tea bags (I used Twinings decaf chai) 4 cups boiling water 4 cups unsweetened vanilla almond milk 1 can full-fat coconut...
