Autumn Chill Chai-Tea-Ni Martini {& 9 Festive Fall Drinks}
I am sharing a really delicious Autumn chill chai-tea-ni martini!
Recently some fab Canadian blogger friends asked me to participate in an Autumn Drink Hop.
I’m not going to lie.
When I think of “Fall” drinks I have a pretty unoriginal image pop into my mind.
Probably the same one you have? {Or maybe you are more original then me.}
Hint: it rhymes with bumkin diced pate.
Okay. You got it.
Pumpkin Spiced Latte.
But that, my friends, is NOT what I am here to share today.
I decided to hop outside the box a little and think of something a tad spicy and creamy that will really warm you up.
Well, India is a warm and spicy country and they sure know how to brew amazing Chai Tea. And we all know what they drink in Russia to stay warm….
Why not mix the two? How about a Chai-Tea-Ni Martini?
Yes, please!
Autumn Chill Chai-Tea-Ni Martini
Ingredients
- 1 oz Vodka preferably Vanilla
- 1 oz Light Cream or milk
- 2 oz Chai Tea Mix
- Additional:
- Cinnamon for the rim or top
- Whipped cream optional
Instructions
-
Measure the vodka, light cream, and chai team mix into a martini shaker with ice. Shake lightly until blended and pour into a Martini glass that has been rimmed with cinnamon. Add some whipped cream or a light dusting of cinnamon on top.
Smooth. Creamy. A tad of delicious spice. And it warms you right up, from the inside out. Perfect for a chilly autumn evening in front of the fire. Or watching “Suits”. Your pick.
Are you an Autumn drink fan like I am now?

What is your favourite type of drink for a chilly Autumn evening??
YUM!! Looks delicious! Great idea, Krista!
Oh yum, Chai is my favorite and I drink it year round (usually iced). Did you use a liquid chai mix? I typically used a powdered version from Trader Joe’s.
Hi Andrea! I used a liquid chai that I bought at the grocery store- but I am sure you could just make up a small amount of your powdered version and use that. My liquid type has you combine it with half milk and half concentrate to make your regular chai tea latte, if that helps:)
Oh my gosh Krista, Chai Tea is my favorite fall drink and now I’m so excited to try this out! Not to mention all of the other drinks look super yummy! Pinned 🙂
Hahaha bumkin diced pate!!! That made me laugh out loud! I’m loving this drink you made…this is a definite must make!
Yuuum. I’m sitting here all snuggled in a warm blanket and that drinks sounds about perfect. Pinning, my friend!

This looks AMAZING, Krista! Can’t wait to try it out!
Sounds like the perfect combination for fall!
