What You'll Need:

  • 2 tablespoons homemade brown sugar syrup infused with cinnamon and a hint of vanilla extract
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg for that extra spice
  • 2 shots of premium Octave Espresso
  • 1/3-1/2 cup of your preferred milk
  • Ice cubes for that refreshing chill
  • Shaker or shaker bottle for the essential shake
  • Your favorite mug or glass for the final presentation


Let's Get Shakin':

1. Cinnamon Spice and everything nice: 
Create your secret weapon – the homemade Cinnamon Infusion. In a saucepan, combine brown sugar, a hint of vanilla extract, and a generous pinch of ground cinnamon. Let it simmer until your kitchen is filled with the warm aroma of cinnamon. 

2. Espresso Excellence: 
Next, brew two shots of Octave Espresso using your trusty espresso machine. Let the rich aroma of Octave Coffee beans fill your kitchen as you prepare for the main act.

3: Cool Down with Ice:
Drop a generous handful of ice cubes into your shaker.  The ice will not only cool down your drink, but also infuse it with a crispness that elevates the entire experience.

4. Spiced Synergy: 
In your shaker, mix the homemade brown sugar syrup infused with cinnamon, vanilla extract, and that dash of nutmeg. 

5. Shake Things Up:
Secure the lid on your shaker and give it a good shake. Feel the excitement as the ice dances with the espresso, creating a frothy masterpiece that's as invigorating as it is delicious.

6. Pour into Perfection:
Open the shaker and let the Cinna-Spice Octave Espresso Extravaganza pour into your favorite mug or glass. Witness the captivating blend of coffee, spice, and coolness coming together in perfect harmony.

7. Milk Marvel:
Gently pour 1/3 cup of milk into the mix, creating a creamy swirl that adds a touch of luxury to every sip.

8. Optional Garnish: 
For the finishing touch, sprinkle a pinch of ground cinnamon on top. Your Cinna-Spice creation not only tastes delicious, but looks like a work of art.
