Feeling Fancy?
A dash of maple syrup will add a richness to this cocktail, and if you wanted to take it further, nutmeg on top adds a lovely smell! Another thing that could fancy up this classic, is making your own whipped cream and flavouring it, you could do coffee, vanilla, nutmeg, cinnamon, or anything you like.
