- Garnish Ideas: A candy cane stirrer, a sprinkling of cinnamon, or even whipped cream can make it feel even more special!
- Dairy-Free Option: To make it dairy-free, use almond milk, oat milk, or coconut cream instead of heavy cream.

- Add a little nutmeg or pumpkin spice to give it a more festive feel.
- For an adult-only treat, add a dash of Baileys, Kahlúa, or your favorite coffee liqueur.
- Stronger Coffee: For a stronger flavor, use espresso or a double shot.
How to store and use leftovers
- This coffee is finest when it’s hot and fresh, so don’t leave any behind.
