Notes
-
For a large batch: To keep the drink warm for an event, you can transfer it to a slow cooker on the “warm” setting. Be sure to stir it every so often to prevent the spices from settling at the bottom.
-
Adjusting the creaminess: You can easily customize the texture of this drink. Feel free to play with the ratio of milk to heavy cream, or even use half-and-half, depending on how creamy you like it. For a dairy-free version, oat milk or almond milk work beautifully.
-
Heating the mixture: For the best results, heat the drink in a heavy bottom saucepan over low heat. This helps to simmer the mixture gently and prevents the milk from scorching.
