Cinnamon Latte Cocktail combines the warmth of steamed milk, the rich depth of espresso or strongly brewed coffee, and the sweet spice of cinnamon liqueur, with a hint of Kahlua for a boozy kick.

Instructions
Pour cinnamon and coffee liqueurs into a glass mug.
Brew a fresh shot of espresso (or strong coffee), and pour into the mug.
Use a milk frother to steam the milk, and pour into the mug.
Top with whipped cream and sprinkle with cinnamon powder. Serve immediately.
Notes
You can easily make a non-alcoholic version by skipping the liqueurs, and substituting cinnamon simple syrup. You’ll still get the delicious cinnamon latte flavors.
I used Goldschläger and Kahlúa, but fireball whisky, cinnamon schnapps, or any brand of coffee liqueur will be just as delicious.
Using vanilla or caramel-flavored coffee will add extra layers of flavor to your cocktail.
If you do not have a milk frother, you can heat the milk on the stove or in the microwave and whisk it vigorously by hand, or shake it in a mason jar until it becomes foamy.
Looking for a sweeter drink? Add some brown sugar or maple syrup to take away any bitterness.
In warmer weather, turn it into an iced cinnamon latte cocktail by shaking the ingredients with ice cubes in a cocktail shaker and serving it chilled.
