By simply using vegetable milk like almond milk, soy milk, or any other dairy milk of your choice. Also, remove the heavy cream from the recipe and you will have a vegan chai latte.

How long does it last?

I suggest you make the concentrated tea ahead of time and keep it in the fridge for a week. Then you will just have to add this preparation to your hot or cold milk to make your tea latte.
