1. Can I make Christmas coffee in a French press?

Yes! This Christmas coffee recipe can easily be made in a French press. Simply add the coffee grounds, spices, and sugar to the French press, pour in hot water, and allow it to steep for 4-5 minutes before pressing. Serve as you normally would, with whipped cream and cinnamon sugar on top.

2. Can I make this recipe without whipped cream?

Absolutely! While whipped cream adds a festive touch, you can skip it if you prefer. You could also top the coffee with a splash of milk or your favorite non-dairy alternative, such as almond milk or oat milk, for a creamier texture without the whipped cream.

3. How long can I store leftover Christmas coffee?

Leftover Christmas coffee can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days. If you’d like to enjoy it as iced coffee, simply pour it over ice and add a bit of creamer or milk. Just make sure to store it in an airtight container to maintain freshness
