This episode was a Facebook follower request that I just had to jump on. Infused coffee creamer. I decided to jazz it up and not just make a plain old creamer, but make a fall flavored favorite like Peppermint Mocha.
And since I’m extra nice, I even included a recipe below for pumpkin spice flavored creamer, despite my strong distate for PSL. I’m not going to bore you with a long winded explanation about why Peppermint Mocha creamer is tasty and good or why I picked it because I have a feeling you’re really only here for the recipe and not my musings on the differences between peppermint and spearmint.
