I am going to teach you how to fake a latte…mainly because I don’t own an espresso machine. And it kinda sorta made me feel like a barista ;)

So eggnog – I feel like you either love it or you hate it. But even if you’re not all in with eggnog, this will knock ya socks off. It’s got just the right amount of eggnog, booze, coffee AND it’s topped with frothed milk! Which I just taught myself how to do off YouTube. It’s really that easy!

makes 2 lattes

2 cups brewed coffee
1 1/2 cups eggnog
1 tablespoon spiced rum
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
sugar, to taste (I think I used 1-2 tablespoons, but adjust to your liking!)
dash of vanilla extract
1/2 cup skim milk
mini marshmallows

1. Combine the first 6 ingredients in a medium saucepan over low/medium heat. Stir and let it heat up for roughly 5 minutes
2. Pour milk into a jar/cup with a lid and shake vigorously for about 30 seconds, remove lid and microwave for 30 seconds – the milk should double in size and create FROTH!
3. Split the latte mixture between two mugs and spoon frothed milk on top then add marshmallows and cinnamon
