You can either use the button to the right of the address bar, or a configurable keyboard shortcut. The default keyboard shortcut is:
• For Windows & Linux: Alt + T
• For macOS: Ctrl + T
You can change this shortcut by going to chrome://extensions and clicking the "Keyboard shortcuts" link at the bottom of the page.
