Because what better way to start the next week, right?
And especially this time of year. I mean, it’s nearly December, everything’s getting all Christmasy, and Baby, it’s cold outside….
I know I’m in the mood for lattes! What about you? Ha, as if someone wouldn't want one!
Okay I admit it, I’ve slowly been becoming a coffee addict over the past years and now I really love the stuff.
I always feel a little lazy when I’m sharing recipes for lattes and things like this because they’re so fast and simple it hardly counts as a recipe. On the other hand, I used homemade eggnog so that adds a little bit more complexity if you wanna try that too. Otherwise though, these takes about 5 minutes once you’ve made them once or twice, but probably closer to 10 the first time.
I honestly think even those of you who hate eggnog alone could still fall in love with a steaming hot mug of this super festive morning drink! In the past I wasn’t a fan of eggnog myself, solely based on the name sounding gross, but then I tried it and realized that it was basically nutmeg infused melted ice cream and I was 100% sold from then on.
I had been making it myself the last few years because it’s not something you could buy in Chile and it’s also way better homemade, but now I sometimes cheat and use store bought because we're back in the States.
So I’ve told you how easy these lattes are and how to do them, so what else is there to say???

Starbucks’ coffee is so expensive !
I know, that's why homemade is so much better. Thanks for your reply @khalilahmad

These look awesome! I’ve never tried eggnog before but I’m currently on my way to Starbucks for the morning coffee :)
Haha, well then maybe you should order an eggnog latte and see what you think @jeffjagoe. Hey, thanks for reading my friend!
I’m kinda scared... I think the word eggnog throws me off haha
Ayyy Diossss, esto luce muy bien... excelente!! Muy buen spot!
Gracias @candybo!

Yuuumm! I’m enjoying drip coffee with a splash of eggnog right now - which suddenly looks lame compared to your beautiful concoction, 😉
Love the ornaments in the shoot too... it all feels very festive!
Oh, no that's a wonderful and simple way to do it through the season @coruscate! Thanks for your reply!
Has no one said NFL Sunday yet?? Haha well let me be the first! I would really love the recipe anyway! Maybe I’ll step up my coffee game this holiday season. 😄

Oh, you must give eggnog a shot @doitvoluntarily. Testing in a cup of coffee is a good way, kind of like dipping your toe into the pool first.
That all looks so wonderful @gringalicious
