Take Your Coffee to the Next Level With These 10 Add-ons (5 of 5)

8. Coconut Milk

Whether you’re looking for a natural, dairy-free alternative to milk, or you just want to try something different, give coconut milk a try. It is much thicker and creamier than soy and almond milk, and therefore it won’t water down your coffee. You can choose either the sweetened or unsweetened variety.

9. Nutmeg

Are you looking to mix things up with your coffee but aren’t a fan of sweet java? Adding nutmeg is a perfect solution. This spice contains a slightly woody taste and is commonly used when baking things, so it might just give you a sense of nostalgia. One sprinkle or two is all you need!

10. Whipped Maple Butter

Butter in coffee? Sounds weird, but folks in Vietnam, Singapore, and parts of India do it all the time. If you get creative and add some maple syrup, you might learn to embrace this idea. Start by whipping your butter on the high setting until it is fluffy, adding maple syrup and a pinch of salt in the process. Add a dollop into your coffee and you might never go back to the conventional way of making it. Best of all, maple butter can last you for months when refrigerated.
