Egg Nog Latte

Today I’m sharing one of my favourite warm drinks to enjoy this time of year: Egg nog lattes! I'm not one to pour a glass of egg nog and drink it straight up but, I do enjoy egg nog in my coffee. Sometimes I'll use it to replace my cream, and other times I'll create my own latte. It's super easy to make & much easier on the budget too ;)

Make your own:

1. Make some coffee & then fill your favourite mug 1/2 - 3/4 full of said coffee.

2. Next, warm approx. 1/2 cup of egg nog (I put mine in a small microwaveable bowl or pyrex measuring cup and then warm in the microwave). It usually takes about two 20 second cycles. (If your frother warms, then skip this step).

3. When your egg nog is warm, add a sprinkle of cinnamon & nutmeg to it and then froth with a frother. The one I have I found for about $10 at Walmart (worth every penny!). *Note: if you like your latte a bit sweeter, then I suggest adding the sugar to the egg nog because it'll mix in nicely when you froth!

4. Once you have frothed till your heart's content, add your egg nog to your coffee! And to be sure you get all that foam on top, hold it back with a spoon when pouring the egg nog into your mug. That way you'll be sure to have a nice little mountain of foamy goodness on top!

5. That's it. Sit back & enjoy!

*If you don’t have a frother you can place a whisk in the milk & literally roll it back and forth in your palms until the milk gets foamy. It might take a minute or two longer, but totally worth it!
