Tips for Perfection
- Adjust the sweetness to your liking by gradually adding honey or alternative sweeteners.
- Experiment with different milk options for varied flavor profiles. Coconut milk adds a tropical twist, but you could also opt for oak milk, soy milk, cashew milk or other options.
- Don't rush the heating process; slow and steady heating ensures the flavors meld together seamlessly and will prevent your mixture from burning. Make sure to stir consistently.
- Get creative with toppings! From marshmallows, to crushed candy canes to a sprinkle of sea salt, the possibilities are endless.
