- Optionally, top with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon for extra flavor and presentation.

Notes
- Non-dairy options: Swap the almond milk for oat milk, coconut milk, or any other non-dairy milk for a different flavor profile.
- Sweetener Alternatives: You can use maple syrup, stevia, or agave syrup instead of carob syrup or honey.
- Hot version: Skip the ice and heat the almond milk before combining it with the coffee.
- This drink is best enjoyed fresh, but can be stored in the fridge for up to 24 hours.
- For a frothy texture, use a milk frother or shake the almond milk in a jar before adding it to the coffee.
