Bulletproof coffee, also known as keto coffee or butter coffee, is all the rage these days. But, if you don’t like coffee or maybe just want to switch things up, tea is another great choice.

Unfortunately, we haven’t come across any pre-made, keto-friendly bulletproof tea options yet.

And, it’s not like there aren’t ready-to-drink chai teas out there, either. It’s just that every single one we have come across has a ton of sugar. We get it– unsweetened chai tea is not very appealing!

Luckily, when we make our own drinks, we can use our choice of keto-friendly sweeteners. There are some bulletproof tea keto recipes that we have been tweaking and perfecting during our years on keto.

We wanted to share our favorite  drink recipe here with everyone, a chai Bulletproof tea. Chai is a great tea for our recipe because it is so flavorful and fragrant. That means pairs perfectly with creamy, milky flavors.

Keto Chai Bulletproof Tea Latte!

What is it about Bulletproof tea that is good for keto?

In short, MCT oil. What’s that? It is essentially one of the most efficiently used fats that you can ingest. It easily converts to ketones, which are the driving force behind ketosis and the keto diet.

By adding MCT oil to your diet, you will be more likely to maintain a state of ketosis, where you are burning fat for energy.

Combine this with high-quality butter and heavy cream, and you have yourself a creamy, delectable drink. It’s great to start your day with some MCT that will provide prolonged satiety and energy.

Mixing it up

You’ll need a way to mix everything together (and spoons just won’t cut it). Our NutriBullet blender does the best job of getting the bulletproof tea foamy and frothy. We’ve also used a power whisker with great success.

We also know those who use immersion blenders with nice results, though we haven’t tried it. Worst case scenario, just pick up a whisk and mix by hand! Or, looking for a portable power tool– milk frothers work ridiculously well.
