Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups – milk of choice, I used soy (depending on the cups you are using, you might need more)
- 2 tablespoons – brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons – molasses
- ½ teaspoon – ground ginger
- ½ teaspoon – ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon – ground nutmeg
- Pinch of ground clove
- 4 shots – espresso or (½ cup of strong brewed coffee)
- Whipped cream, I used Reddiwhip Almond Milk
Equipment:
- Small saucepan
- Rubber Whisk
- Coffee maker (Use whatever you normally make your coffee with, I used an espresso machine!)
- Your favorite mugs
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, combine the milk, brown sugar, molasses, ground ginger, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and ground clove. Place over medium heat and bring to a simmer until it’s steaming hot. Remove from the heat and divide between two cups.
- Add your coffee to the cups and mix it together with the milk mixture. I poured 2 shots of espresso into both cups. If you’re doing a different brew method, add as much coffee as you please.
- Top it off with some whipped cream and dust a bit of cinnamon over the top. Serve and enjoy!
Notes
- You can use any milk you prefer, since this is a vegan blog I used a dairy-free option. Any milk will work for this recipe!
