Common Questions About Making This Spiced Mocha
I know you might have a few thoughts.
It’s natural when trying a new recipe.
Mei and I get asked these things often.
Let’s clear up any confusion now.
We want your experience to be great.
Can I Make This Cinnamon Mocha Almond Milk Latte with Spice Ahead of Time
This is a tricky one for hot drinks.
I suggest making it fresh every time.
The best part of this warming winter drink is the steam.
The flavor of that almond milk coffee fades fast.
You can prep the spiced milk mixture, though. That’s okay.
Keep the milk mix refrigerated for one day.
When ready to serve, gently reheat it slowly.
Then, just add your freshly brewed coffee.
What if I don’t like almond milk?
Feel free to use oat milk or regular dairy milk.
Oat milk foams up beautifully, I find.
Can I skip the instant coffee granules?
Yes, you absolutely can skip them.
They just boost the mocha depth a bit.
The drink will still be delicious without them.
Storing Leftover Cinnamon Mocha Almond Milk Latte with Spice
Did you make too much Cinnamon Mocha Almond Milk Latte with Spice?
Don’t worry about pouring it out.
Store leftovers in an airtight container.
Keep the container in the fridge, friend.
It keeps well for about one day.
Reheat gently on the stovetop until warm.
