I have some chai concentrate and am planning to use about 1/8 c. of that (2 T.) in this recipe, but will subtract the honey as the concentrate is quite sweet itself.

THANK YOU! So little medical help available on the thyroid. All standard medical advice is counterproductive to weight loss. Drinking 8 gl. water full of fluoride; swimming in chlorinated water; soy shakes, tofu, soymilk etc.; all harm thyroid and stall weight loss. Frustrating!
I will experiment with this recipe using it first as given, then with my favorite organic almond milk; and coconut milk:
Hope in a glass!
