Awake Chai [non]Tea (Alkaline, GF, Raw, Vegan)

I quite enjoy ice Chai tea, but don't want the caffine from the black tea that Chai is made with. This version doesn't use any tea, so there is no steeping of course, and it is alkaline as well. The maca in it also helps with energy, so can be a nice wake up in the morning, or whenever you want to drink it.

I adapted this recipe from the book Living in the Raw Gourmet, Chai Nut Milk Recipe.

Makes about 4 1/2 cups

2 1/2 c almond milk
2 c coconut water
1 tsp vanilla extract (no alcohol kind, I use frontier)
12 drops vanilla stevia
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp garam masala
1 tsp ginger powder
1 tsp maca
1/2 tsp ground cardamom

Combine all ingredients in a blender. Enjoy.

*The spices settle fast, so, keep a spoon out to stir if you aren't going to drink it fast.
