Imagine snuggling up on a cloudy afternoon with a mug of something warm, sweet, and utterly comforting. That's exactly what this Toasted Marshmallow Chai Fluff Latte offers. It's more than just a drink; it's an experience—a little escape from the everyday hustle. Chai, with its blend of spices, already has a hug-in-a-mug vibe. But topping it with toasted marshmallow fluff? Pure genius, if I do say so myself.
I stumbled upon this concoction quite by accident, actually. I was craving chai one evening and had some leftover marshmallow fluff from making s'mores. A lightbulb went off, and the rest, as they say, is history. Now, it's my go-to treat when I need a little pick-me-up. It's surprisingly simple to make, and that toasted marshmallow top layer...it's just heavenly. I've had many people ask me, "Where did you get that drink?".

🍽 Ingredients
📖 Instructions
- Brew the Chai: In a small saucepan, combine chai tea bags or loose-leaf chai with 1 cup of water. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and let it steep for 5-7 minutes. The longer it steeps, the stronger the chai flavor will be! I personally love a robust chai, so I often let it go for a full 7 minutes.
- Warm the Milk: While the chai is brewing, warm your milk of choice in a separate saucepan or in the microwave. If using a saucepan, heat over medium heat until it's steaming but not boiling. If microwaving, heat in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until warm.
- Combine Chai and Milk: Remove the chai from the heat and discard the tea bags or strain the loose-leaf tea. Pour the warm milk into the chai, stirring gently to combine. At this stage, feel free to add any extra sweetener you desire.
- Froth the Latte (Optional): For a creamier latte, use a milk frother to froth the milk and chai mixture until it's light and foamy. This step is totally optional but it makes the latte feel extra fancy.
- Add Marshmallow Fluff: Spoon a generous amount of marshmallow fluff on top of the chai latte, filling the mug to the brim! Don't be shy—this is where the magic happens.
- Toast the Fluff (Optional): If you have a kitchen torch, gently toast the marshmallow fluff until it's golden brown and slightly caramelized. Be careful not to burn it! If you don't have a torch, you can broil it in the oven for a few seconds, but watch it closely to prevent burning.
- Serve and Enjoy: Serve your toasted marshmallow chai fluff latte immediately and enjoy every sip of its warm, sweet, and comforting goodness!
