Snickerdoodle Latte
A little brown sugar and some warm and tasty spices make the best addition to this snickerdoodle latte.
There’s nothing like a delicious cup of fancy coffee or tea, and I love hot drinks even in the heat of the summer. I also tend to gravitate toward making simple tasty lattes at home like this Maple Sea Salt Latte and if you love tea this Coastal Fog Tea Latte. Not only can you save money but also you can control how sweet you want it to be.
