Spiced Ginger Cinnamon Coffee: A Flavorful Twist with Surprising Health Perks

If you want an iced version, let the coffee cool before pouring over ice to avoid dilution.

For make-ahead convenience, you can brew a larger batch, infuse with ginger and cinnamon, and store in the fridge for up to 2 days. Sweeten and add milk only before serving.

Spicy Kick: Sprinkle a pinch of cayenne for an energizing boost.

Mocha Style: Stir in a teaspoon of cocoa powder for a chocolate-spice fusion.

Herbal Touch: Add a small pinch of cardamom for a more complex, aromatic flavor.
