Serving information: . One serving of this recipe is 1/4 cup or less, depending on your tastes. Just enjoy it as a freebee in addition to your breakfast fat!

Many of the standard iced or hot coffees may be tasty, but they are loaded with sugars, artificial flavors and low-quality dairy. You can play around with liquid stevia drops to give yourself more flavor options, too. Just don’t go overboard and start entertaining too much of a sweet desire – it can be a slippery slope. One way to help make your coffee more special is to purchase a coffee frother. Amazon has a great one for $12 that comes in all sorts of colors. To make a standard cup of coffee special, whip just the cream in the cup, then add your coffee.

INGREDIENTS

  • 3/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1/4 cup organic heavy cream or full-fat coconut cream (vegan)
  • 1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
  • Liquid stevia drops, to taste (flavored for variations), optional
  • Cinnamon, nutmeg sprinkles, optional

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Pour the almond milk, heavy cream, vanilla and stevia drops (if using) into a medium-sized jar with a lid and shake well.
  2. Store in the fridge for up to 10 days. Can also pour into an ice cube tray for use in iced coffee drinks.
