FAQ
Can I make this ahead?Yes. It keeps well for two to three days in the fridge. Give it a good shake before serving. Can I serve this warm?
Yes. It is delicious warm especially with a splash of whiskey and a little extra nutmeg on top. Is there a way to make it even creamier?
Use the full amount of coconut milk or add two tablespoons of soaked cashews before blending. Can I use another plant milk?
Oat milk works best for creaminess but almond milk or soy milk will also work.
