Not everything requires a bowl, a mixer, whisk, and measuring spoons.
Sometimes the most delicious comforts come out of milk, spice, and heat.
Ive been keeping it pretty simple in the kitchen lately. You know trying to treat my body right, and such. Im also trying to stay far far away from the Winter cold thats ruining the world as of late (that was totally dramatic).
Heres the plan:
Heat about 2 cups of almond milk in a small saucepan. If its unsweetened almond milk you might want to add a touch of honey. If its already sweetened no need.
Add about 1/8 teaspoon of ground cardamom and a good sprinkling of fresh ground nutmeg to the heating milk. Also add the scrapings of half a vanilla bean heck, throw the pod in too. If you dont have vanilla beans on hand, no worries (!) just throw in a dash of pure vanilla extract. If you want to add a bit of bourbon I wont tell a soul.
Heat until steaming hot.
Serve hot with cookies from your favorite bakery. Enjoy while reading a cookbook studded with Polaroids of your friends as bookmarks. (Suggestions no biggie.)
