Coffee, Spice, and Everything Nice

For many, waking up to brew a fresh pot of coffee is the only way to start the day. The sound of the grinder and the aroma of freshly ground beans meeting boiling water is close to a spiritual experience. Add a bit of milk and cinnamon, and suddenly, the moment transforms into something even more extraordinary. Find out why coffee with spice is so nice and get three new latte recipes to try now.
