Place the saucepan over medium-low heat. Warm the mixture gently, stirring continuously until it is hot but not boiling (about 5–7 minutes).
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and ground cinnamon.
Taste and adjust sweetness if needed by adding a bit more sugar, whisking to dissolve.
Ladle the Mocha Nog into mugs.
Top each mug with whipped cream and a sprinkle of chocolate shavings, if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy the creamy, mocha-rich holiday treat!
