No cinnamon, or overly spicy, chocolate drinks (did I just rule out everything?) :/
Apple cider (especially with a cinnamon donut).
Eggnog.
Yes - I especially love hot apple cider!
Is there a much lower sugar version? They’re always so sugary…
Like, can you buy apple dehydrate or something and spice to taste, every cider I come across is absolutley laden with it and my tastes are dryer these days
Cheeky ;)
Hot Apple cider
For confused non-Americans: Americans call an apple juice cider. It’s not alcoholic over there.
Cider is two things. Hot cider is specifically a spiced apple juice, served hot. Cider also refers to alcoholic cider made from fruits, usual apples. If you go to a bar and ask for a cider in the States you will not receive hot cider.
I’m fond of wassail. It’s usually made with cinnamon, but you could exclude it and it should turn out alright.
Trader Joe’s has a store branded jug that’s pretty tasty.
Ginger and honey drink. You can buy it prepackaged from Asian grocers (and probably amazon). Gold Kili is the brand I like.
Also citron and honey drink. Both are excellent.
You Guys, I settled on Ginger Lemon tea and Chunky™️ Chicken Noodle 😁. Also a king-sized glass of wine…
Lots to try throughout rest of season tho!
I’ve grown fond of these little chats we have :)
A like a mug of broth. But there is a TON of sodium so that’s a once in a blue moon drink.
Ponche, Latin American hot fruit drink with chunks of fruit in it. Usually has cinnamon but there’s no reason you can’t leave it out.
Inka Polish grain beverage. Hard to find in US stores but can be ordered. Add the powder to fully boiling water then add what you like. My preference is honey and soy milk to end up like a love child of coffee and hot chocolate.
Mint tea
Hot milk with a little bit of honey. Herbal tea is also excellent.

Korean Yuja tea is really nice during cold winter months. It’s one of my favorite drinks when it’s cold. It’s sweet and it warms you right up. You can buy the marmalade at Asian grocery stores.
edit: It’s not really tea, but marmalade dissolved in hot water. Sweet, thick and heartwarming. Also the rinds are nice to chew on :)

Warm milk is my go to hot bedtime drink
Milk tea with a pinch of tea masala. Or the simple version, a small pinch each of ginger and cardamom.
