  • Choice of Milk. You may use your preferred milk here. Some options you can try are almond milk, oat milk, coconut milk, and whole milk. Any kind of milk is acceptable to use.
  • Sweetener (0ptional). This totally depends on you. You can use regular sugar, coffee syrup, maple syrup, and even allulose to create a sugar-free drink.
  • Whipped Cream (optional). You can also top your drink with whipped cream if you like to make a refreshing cold foam.
