- 1 cup milk whole milk, 2%, or dairy-free alternative
- 2 tablespoons homemade sugar cookie syrup or to taste

Pour the milk into a small saucepan and heat over medium-low heat until hot and steaming, stirring occasionally. Do not boil. Alternately, add milk and sugar cookie syrup to electric frother and press the button.
Add the homemade sugar cookie syrup and stir until fully combined.
Use a handheld milk frother or whisk to create a light layer of foam, if desired.
Pour into a mug and top with whipped cream or festive sprinkles.
Serve warm and enjoy!
Sweetness: Start with 1 tablespoon of sugar cookie syrup for a less sweet drink, or use 2–3 tablespoons for a sweeter sugar cookie flavor.
Milk options: Whole milk creates a creamy texture, but oat milk and almond milk also work well.
No frother? Whisk the warm milk vigorously or enjoy it without foam.
Microwave option: Heat the milk and syrup together in a microwave-safe mug in short intervals, stirring until warm.
Serving children: Allow the drink to cool to a safe temperature before serving.
