It’s the time for cozy moments, and there is nothing quite like a steaming cup of coffee to warm your spirits. By infusing your coffee with flavors suited for these seasons you can create delightful beverages that are not only delicious but great for making memories.

What are your favourite stay-inside recipes?

Cinnamon adds a warm and comforting aroma to coffee, try getting the best organic cinnamon rolls you can get and grind them in your spice grinder. A pinch of this spice not only brings flavor, but it’s said that it might support a better health. It’s sweet and woody notes make it perfect for the darker days ahead.

Crushed up almonds can enhance and enrich your coffee by adding a more nutty flavor. Just a few almonds inside of your pourover or immersion brew can make it have a luxurious taste. Almonds add a depth to the brew and changes up your regular cup.

Coca nibs are less suited for an immersion brew, but for short filtration they can add an explosive taste to your cup. Be sure to use raw unsweetened nibs, to benefit from their warmth and antioxidants that contribute to your well-being.

Do you have any other great additions? How about mixing up your brew with spiced herbal tea?

    In the same vein as almonds, I love a bit of amaretto in my late-morning/early afternoon coffee when I’m back home for the holidays.

    Cardamom and fresh ground nutmeg are also nice in coffee, though I feel spices work best when there’s a splash of cream or milk to play off of in there.

    Gonna second amaretto as a nice addition to an evening coffee, doubly so with a few spices.
