Whether you’re craving a refreshing midday boost or a spiced treat that feels cozy without the heat, this drink’s rich, layered flavor keeps it a worldwide menu favorite year after year.

Frequently Asked Questions – Iced Chai Latte

It’s made with a premium chai tea concentrate (an infusion of black tea, cardamom, black pepper, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, star anise, natural flavors, plus sugar, honey, ginger juice, vanilla, and citric acid), mixed with milk and poured over ice. The result is a creamy, refreshing balance of bold tea and warming spices—sweet, spicy, and perfectly chilled.

Yes—it’s brewed with black tea, so it contains caffeine. A Grande (16 oz) has about 95 mg of caffeine, similar to a single shot of espresso.

Definitely! A Dirty Chai is a fan-favorite customization: just add one or more shots of espresso to your Iced Chai Latte for an extra bold coffee kick. Ask your barista for “a Dirty Chai” or specify the number of shots (e.g., “Grande Iced Chai Latte with an extra shot of espresso”).

No—the standard Starbucks chai concentrate includes honey as a sweetener, so it’s dairy-free but not vegan. (You can make the drink dairy-free by swapping in plant-based milk like oatmilk or almondmilk, but the honey in the concentrate remains.)

Yes! Starbucks updated the chai recipe in early 2026 to make it even more customizable. Ask for more or fewer pumps of chai concentrate to dial up or down the sweetness, spice intensity, and overall flavor—perfect for tailoring it exactly to your taste.

Standard stores don’t offer an unsweetened or sugar-free chai concentrate, but you can customize for lower sugar: request fewer chai pumps to reduce sweetness, then add sugar-free syrups (like sugar-free vanilla) for extra flavor without the added sugar. Plant-based milks and no extras keep it lighter too!
