I know it smells amazing, but you're just about finished!! Now all you need to do is strain it. I strained it twice, although if you enjoy texture I don't see not straining it to be a bad thing!

Unfortunately, I have no whip cream. Finish it off with mountain tall whip cream and sprinkle cinnamon or cocoa powder. This drink is PERFECT for the fall/winter. I hope you all enjoy!! \u2615\ufe0f
