Whip Up These Coffee Concoctions For Halloween
Halloween is here and what better way to celebrate this day than by sipping spicy coffee-based recipes?
Spicy Pumpkin Cappuccino
Ingredients
30 ml Espresso/Moka pot coffee
200 ml milk
3 tsp pumpkin puree
15 ml honey
Nutmeg (pinch)
Cinnamon 1 stick

Directions
In a pan take milk, honey, pumpkin puree, cinnamon stick, and nutmeg and boil it on medium heat. Once the milk starts boiling, remove it from the fire and remove the cinnamon stick. Pour the milk mixture into a French press and just push and pull the plunger 6-8 times to get nice silky and smooth texture foam.
Take a shot of espresso into a serving mug and pour the milk with foam over the espresso. Make sure you get a thick layer of milk foam top, if you can’t manage to get it by pouring then just scoop it with a help of a spoon.
Add whipped cream on the top and sprinkle some freshly grated nutmeg.
