It’s that time of year to deck the halls with some festive drinks. One of the most fun aspects of the holidays is the fact that you can get creative with desserts and cocktails — and Kendall Jenner just recommended a tasty recipe of her own in a recent TikTok video (and no, it does not include cutting cucumbers). The “Chaitini” — as Jenner calls it — is a twist on an espresso martini, with a tequila base instead of vodka and chai latte instead of espresso. So basically, it's a totally different drink (but still aesthetically pleasing for your Instagram stories!).
The model starts off by filling the shaker with ice and 2 ounces of Jenner’s own tequila, 818 Reposado Tequila. The 750-milliliter bottle sells for $39.99 and is advertised to have hints of vanilla and toffee.

Kendall then opts for ½ ounce of Amarula Liqueur (a cream liqueur with notes of vanilla and toast) and adds in the ingredient that changes the beverage game: 1.5 ounces of TAZO Spiced Chai Latte Iced Tea Concentrate. You can purchase a single container for $6.39 at Target or a 4-pack carton at Walmart for only $19.68.

Aside from simple cocktails, you can actually brew up a chai latte of your own with this product—just add in equal parts of milk or a milk substitute. One reviewer compared the concentrate to making Starbucks drinks at home (and who isn't a proponent of a nifty Starbucks hack these days?!).
Then, just throw in ½ ounce of your favorite oat milk, three dashes of chocolate bitters, and top with a sprinkle of cinnamon. Shake the drink away, and voila! You have Kendall Jenner’s cocktail, perfect for a girls night or your family celebration on Christmas Eve (so any holiday occasion, really). We’d be shocked if recipe content creators don’t hop on this chai idea real fast.
