How to Make a Vanilla Chai and Chia Smoothie Recipe
First, you will need to place all of these ingredients into a blender:
Milk: You can easily make this chai smoothie dairy-free with using your favorite non-dairy milk alternative.
Chia Seeds: These only contain a few calories with many health benefits like antioxidants. Chia seeds provide omega-3, fiber, and protein.
Ginger Powder: Adds flavor and aroma.
Cinnamon: A popular anti-inflammatory spice that has been known to be the healthiest spice in the world.
Nutmeg: This spice detoxifies the body and kicks up some flavor. A small pinch goes a long way.
Cardamom: Another spice that you just need a pinch of. It may help prevent cavities and freshen your breath.
Honey: Use raw honey for health benefits and to sweeten things up.
Protein Powder: Use the brand and flavor that you like.

Yes, I recommend this recipe.
No, I do not recommend this recipe.
I’ve always wanted to try a smoothie with these spices but never did until now! I used half the amount of milk, honey and chia seeds (since I was making only one serving), and since I didn’t have protein powder or cardamom I used a drop of vanilla extract and 1/3 frozen banana. I found this smoothie to be simple to make, tasty, and with just the right amount of spices for me!
Yes, I recommend this recipe.
