Notes
- Milk: Any milk will work, including dairy-free options like almond milk, oat milk, or coconut milk.
- Vegan: Substitute plant-based milk for dairy milk.
- Spices: Feel free to experiment with different spices like nutmeg, cardamom, or cloves.
- Canela: Look for Ceylon cinnamon sticks, known as "canela" in Mexico at your local Latin market. Their flavor is more delicate and floral compared to the cassia cinnamon sticks commonly found in supermarkets.
