Instructions
Brew 2 shots of espresso or prepare 1/3 cup of strong brewed coffee. Set aside.

Stir the honey, ground cinnamon, ground cardamom, and vanilla extract into the milk until well combined.
Pour the brewed espresso (or strong coffee) into a large mug.
Slowly add the spiced honey milk to the espresso, using a spoon to hold back foam until the cup is nearly full. Then spoon the frothy milk on top.
