Makes 1 serving
Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 5 minutes

Ingredients

1 cup coconut milk
1/2 tbs. maple syrup
1 tsp. unsulfured molasses
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp. grated fresh ginger
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1/4 cup hot espresso or strongly brewed coffee

Directions

STEP 1

Add coconut milk, maple syrup, molasses, cinnamon, and fresh ginger to a small saucepan over high heat. Bring the mixture to a boil, then lower the heat to simmer until the spices are very aromatic, about two minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.

STEP 2

Froth with a hand frother or immersion blender for 10-15 seconds, or until desired foam forms. (Alternatively, use a milk steamer to heat and foam the mixture before stirring in the vanilla extract.)

STEP 3

Pour espresso or coffee into a large mug and top with frothed milk mixture.
