⭐️Chai Spice Essential Oil Blend Recipe

This essential oil blend is definitely more complex than my traditional 3-5 essential oils. But the flavor of Chai is beautiful and multifaceted and worthy of a bit of complexity in an essential oil tribute!

• 3 drops Pink Pepper (Schinus molle)
• 2 drops Cardamom (Elettaria cardamomum)
• 2 drops Clove Bud (Syzygium aromaticum / Eugenia caryophyllata)
• 2 drops Cinnamon Bark (Cinnamomum verum / C. cassia)
• 1 drop Cinnamon Leaf (Cinnamomum verum)
• 1 drop Ginger CO2 Extract (Zingiber officinale)

Cinnamon Notes: Cinnamomum verum is the current botanical name for True Cinnamon. This is the species of Cinnamon tree used to distill both bark and leaf oils. The former botanical name, which you may still see on some essential oils, is Cinnamomum zeylanicum. Cinnamomum cassia is another species of Cinnamon. It has a spicier, bolder aroma than the sweeter spice of True Cinnamon.

Making Your Chai Spice Essential Oil Blend

Make the Chai Spice (Latte) essential oil blend in a small bottle—I like to repurpose an empty, clean essential oil bottle when a recipe has too many drops for my diffuser. Use 5-7 drops of Chai Spice (Latte) per 100ml water. Shake gently before dispensing drops into diffuser.

Then when you know you want to make more, make your stock blend in the same essential oil bottle. Use the drop counts provided in the drop-down below to make either the Chai Spice or Chai Spice Latte essential oil blend.

Chai Spice (Latte) Aromatherapy Room Spray Recipe

• 4 oz Spray Bottle
• 1 oz (2 Tablespoons) Everclear or highest proof Vodka (99% or even 70% Isopropyl Alcohol will do in a pinch, too)
• Distilled Water
• 3x Chai Spice OR 3x Chai Spice Latte essential oil blend

In a 4 oz spray bottle combine alcohol and 3x Chai Spice or 3x Chai Spice Latte essential oil blend.

Cap the bottle. Shake and allow to set for at least 30 minutes.

Remove cap. Add distilled water to the shoulder of the bottle. Recap and shake.

Shake before using as some separation of the essential oils may occur.

💚PRO TIP: To reduce the likelihood of spillage, use a small funnel to add the alcohol and distilled water to the bottle.

Can I Make the Room Spray without Alcohol?

Including alcohol extends the shelf-life of this room spray to 6-9 months.

If you choose to omit the alcohol and replace with additional distilled water or any other liquid (including Witch Hazel), the shelf life is much reduced.

Instead of a full 4 oz bottle, make a half (2 oz) or quarter (1 oz) size and discard in 7 days or fewer.

Even if you don’t see any change in the appearance of the room spray, ickies could already be growing in just a few days. And who wants to spray that around their home?!

💚Pro Tip: Enhance Your Seasonal Potpourri!

An activity my family loves to do together in the Fall and early Winter is craft natural potpourri.

We collect pinecones and harvest pine tips from fallen branches. We slice apples and oranges and dry them along with any leftover cranberries from holiday Spiced Cranberry Sauce. Then we arrange them with dried spices in wood or glass bowls.

This Chai Spice (Latte) essential oil blend or room spray (alcohol-based) can be sprinkled or sprayed on your natural potpourri.

The potpourri acts as a passive diffuser to provide a long lasting gentle seasonal aroma! Refresh as desired.

Wishing you aromatic seasonal cheer!
