Variations

  • Extra Creamy Version: Use half-and-half or heavy cream instead of milk for a richer texture.
  • Decaf Option: Use decaffeinated coffee or espresso if you’re avoiding caffeine.

Storage/Reheating

This iced latte is best enjoyed fresh, but if you need to prep ahead:

  • Storage: Keep the honey cinnamon milk mixture in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. When ready to serve, shake or stir well before using, as the cinnamon may settle.
  • Reheating: If you decide to enjoy this latte warm instead of iced, gently heat the honey cinnamon milk on the stove or in the microwave, then pour it over hot coffee.
