Like to mix things up when you place your latte order with all those wacky syrups? An artsy lady-I love it! Try extracts like peppermint or almond, added to taste right before straining.
Just be sure to add them when the milk is hot and give them time to steep along with the vanilla bean.Ī chocoholic kind of lady? Get it, girl! a few tablespoons of high-quality cocoa powder in the mix for a mocha creamer is simply divine. Spicy and sweet? Hot! Just throw in some cinnamon (ground or a whole stick), ginger (fresh or ground), nutmeg-any combination of spices that you like. But recently I learned that I could make my own fabulous flavored coffee creamer for a fraction of the cost with a much simpler ingredients list, and it is awesome.īasically, it's just sweetened condensed milk (which contains only milk and sugar, by the by), milk (or half-and-half or heavy cream, depending on how rich you like your lady coffee), and whatever flavorings you like.

Anyway, he can smell that such a coffee beverage has been created in our kitchen before he even enters the house and his disdain while walking in the door is loud and extremely negative, cursing and shouting, "Ack!! LADY COFFEE!!", as though he's discovered something unsavory on the sole of his shoe. It's like he thinks it will make him grow a uterus or something. You know what drives the husband nuts? "Lady coffee"-that is to say, any coffee that has a creamy look and is flavored.
