1 cup, preferably whole or oat milk for creaminess
Mezcal
1 ounce

1 teaspoon, plus extra for garnish
Cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon, plus extra for garnish

Instructions

  7. Serve hot and enjoy this decadent coffee experience!

  • 💡 Experiment with different types of milk, like almond or coconut milk, for a unique flavor profile.
