Milk-and-Honey Steamer

By Carrie Floyd, from the Culinate Kitchen collection
Serves 1
Total Time 10 minutes

Introduction

My daughter has taken to making steamers for breakfast, which she drinks alongside a plate of toast with marmalade. I especially like this drink as a mid-morning snack on a cold day. You can make this with any kind of milk you have — often we make it out of skim with a slug of cream stirred in — but it’s a tastier brew when you upgrade out of non-fat.

Ingredients

1 cup whole milk
1 tsp. pure vanilla or almond extract
1 tsp. honey
~ Nutmeg, freshly grated

Steps

  1. In a small pan over medium heat warm the milk. Add flavoring — vanilla or almond — and honey; stir to dissolve. Heat until hot, but do not boil.
  2. Whisk until frothy, then turn off heat and let sit for a minute. Pour hot milk into a mug and top with freshly grated nutmeg.

Hey! That’s a Sohbet mug! We live just down the street from Sohbet and go there often. The steamer sounds delicious. Thanks.
