    An eggnog latte is the perfect hot beverage to enjoy during the holidays. Espresso, hot, foamy milk and a little eggnog to give it a hint of sweet flavor.

    I haven't discussed my love for coffee very much on this blog. But I do love it.

    I don't drink a lot of it - just two cups in the morning, and maybe an occasional half-caff cup in the afternoon, if I really feel like it. If I drink any caffeine later than around 2 or 3PM, I know I'll have a hard time sleeping.

    But I'm very particular with my coffee. I roast my own in a dedicated coffee roasting popcorn maker on my back deck. For the few months that it's too cold for that, I buy freshly roasted beans from a local roaster.

    Every morning, I make an espresso-esque small portion of very strong coffee in my Aeropress and mix it with frothed milk to make myself a plain, unsweetened latte.

    I get grumpy when I can't have my coffee my way, like when I'm traveling. The only time my routine differs is during the approximately one month leading up to Christmas, and I get a little wild.

    How do you make an Eggnog Latte?

    During these 4 crazy weeks, I give up my plain old latte and spice things up with an Eggnog Latte every morning.

    That's right folks, for one month out of the year, I simply replace ¼ cup of the milk in my latte with ¼ cup of creamy, delicious, (full fat) eggnog.

    That simple little ingredient switcheroo makes my morning coffee feel like such a luxurious treat, and I'm always a little sad when the New Year rolls around and Eggnog disappears from the shelves.

    I decided I would write the recipe down (type it up?) and take a few pictures of it, so you too can experience the delicious treat that is the eggnog latte.

    While I savor mine in the morning, it also makes for a wonderful afternoon pick-me-up if you've spent the day Christmas shopping, baking, or cleaning the house to get ready for the Holidays.
