Spiced Almond Steamer

I can’t think of a better  way to end the night than with a nice warm mug wrapped in my hands.  This spiced almond milk steamer is a perfect winter drink.

Inspired by Joy’s recipe, I simmered vanilla almond milk with cardamom, cinnamon, and a pinch of ginger.  The mug is polished with a little orange zest and honey.

For just 2 pts+ you can make this treat your new nightly ritual.  Best enjoyed over a pile of magazines, under cozy blankets, with a cookie or two, or by a warm fire.
