Additional Notes/Tips to Enhance the Flavor for the Recipe
- For extra kick, try a splash of maple syrup.
- Adjust honey to taste if you prefer a sweeter drink.
- Add a dash of nutmeg for a bit more spice.
- Serve with a cinnamon stick for stirring and extra flair.
- Use fresh apple cider for the best flavor; store-bought works too but lacks the same depth.
