BEVERAGES

Method

BEVERAGES

  1. 1

    Warm the milk

    In a small saucepan, measure 2 cups of whole milk and place over medium heat.

  2. 2

    Flavor the milk

    Once the milk is warm (not boiling), whisk in 1 tablespoon honey, 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/8 teaspoon salt until fully dissolved.

  3. 3

    Heat to steaming

    Continue warming, whisking occasionally, until the milk is steaming and tiny bubbles form around the edges. Do not let it boil.

  4. 4

    Foam (optional)

    For a creamier texture, whisk vigorously or use a milk frother for 30-60 seconds to create light foam.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Pour the warm, fragrant milk into two mugs and serve immediately. Adjust sweetness or spice if desired.
