You guys.

YOU.

GUYS.

I have a new addiction.

No - it isn't peppermint, I've long been addicted to that.

It's coming up with drinks filled with tons and tons of creamy, thick milk foam.

Really, I should call them coffee-ish drinks - since I am still a coffee purist at heart and a firm and true believer in a delicious, perfect pour over.

But I am so in love with making coffee drinks with a hint of flavored syrup and frothy milk right now, it has totally become my new favorite indulgence.

I was recently given a ninja coffee bar to try out, and am loving trying some fun new ideas with their coffee bar that makes it super easy to enjoy coffee house-style drinks at home. It's so much fun! I definitely recommend this as an easy way to make your own latte at home!

This White Chocolate Peppermint Latte is delicious, so easy, and perfect for the holidays. It will help you start your day with a little extra ho ho ho :

Of course, if you don't have a milk frother, you can just use warm milk - but I absolutely love the velvety thickness of home-steamed milk. It is so rich and delicious - and with a touch of cool whipped cream on top, this drink is absolutely divine!

Tips for perfectly frothing milk:

Heat the milk up (only 40 seconds in the microwave), and then froth.
Make sure you froth your milk separately and then add to your coffee!
If you don't have a fancy milk frother, warm up the milk and flavorings and then add to your java!
