Feel free to adjust the sweetness and spice levels to your preference. For a richer flavor, consider using whole milk or adding a splash of cream. Experiment with different liquors to find your favorite combination. Dark rum or coffee liqueur can add depth and complexity. For a non-alcoholic version, simply omit the liquor or substitute with a non-alcoholic spirit alternative. Garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon or a star anise for an elegant presentation.
