Add a pinch of ground cinnamon or other types of spices to your coffee. However, don’t put cinnamon directly into your coffee cup.
Add cinnamon to coffee grounds before brewing. This easy method can make coffee more aromatic and rich in taste.
Actually, not only cinnamon, but other types of spices such as nutmeg, star anise, and cardamom can also be added to coffee.
You only need to add one to two pinches of spices to the ground coffee, stir well, then brew as usual.
2. Add a little milk foam

Coffee concoctions can also be made like coffee from well-known coffee shops by just adding milk foam on top.
You can add froth or milk foam produced from shaking warm milk until it becomes fine froth. The addition of this shaken milk will add a soft and creamy taste to the drink.
The method only requires pouring a little milk into a container that can be closed tightly, such as a jar. It will be tastier if the milk used is animal milk because it can be more frothy.
The milk in the jar can be microwaved until warm. After that, just shake the warm milk for approximately 30 seconds until it produces thick milk foam. Pour the milk foam over the coffee mixture.
