Ingredients

• 2 tsp Wild Octane chai tea leaves
  
  

• 1 cup hot water (just off the boil, ~200°F)
  
  

• ½ cup tart cherry juice (unsweetened preferred)
  
  

• ½ cup milk of choice (whole, oat, almond, or coconut)
  
  

• 1–2 tsp honey or maple syrup (optional, adjust to taste)
  
  

• 1 cinnamon stick (optional garnish)
  
  

• Fresh cherries (optional garnish)
  

Instructions

1. Steep the Chai:
   Bring water just to a boil, then pour over Wild Octane chai tea leaves in a teapot or infuser. Steep for 5 minutes (adjust for strength).
   
   

2. Cherry Infusion:
   While the chai is steeping, gently warm the tart cherry juice in a small saucepan—just enough so it’s hot but not boiling.
   
   

3. Combine & Cream:
   Strain the steeped chai into a mug or heat-safe glass. Stir in the warmed cherry juice, then add your milk of choice.
   
   

4. Sweeten the Edge:
   Add honey or maple syrup if you want to mellow the tang and spice.
   
   

5. Garnish & Serve:
   Drop in a cinnamon stick and maybe a fresh cherry on the rim for the full Wild Octane flair.
