Creating this malt drink is as simple as a Sunday morning stroll through the countryside, where the air is crisp and the possibilities endless. Here’s what you’ll need:
- 2 cups whole milk (or a dairy-free alternative like almond milk for a lighter touch)
- 1/4 cup malted milk powder
- 2 tablespoons honey (or maple syrup if you prefer a vegan option)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- A pinch of nutmeg
- Whipped cream (optional, for topping)
- Chocolate shavings or a sprinkle of cocoa powder (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Making this drink is as comforting and straightforward as a baking session with my mum. Just follow these simple steps:
- In a medium saucepan, combine the milk, malted milk powder, honey, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
- Warm the mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until it’s hot but not boiling. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
- Once heated, use a whisk to froth the mixture slightly, giving it a delightful texture.
- Pour the malt drink into mugs, and if desired, top with whipped cream.
- Finish with a sprinkle of chocolate shavings or cocoa powder for an extra touch of indulgence.
