Coffee. Oh how I love coffee! I love regular coffee, flavored coffee, other drinks made with coffee, and even foods like these Chocolate Chunk cookies made with coffee!
Adding a little something extra to your coffee once in a while makes for a fun change to your normal coffee routine. And I’m not talking about cream and sugar, either.
You’d be amazed at how adding some common kitchen spices can give your java a delectable jolt!
How to Make Winter Spiced Coffee
The spices used in this coffee recipe always remind me of the holidays with a warm and inviting aroma and a flavor that’s divine. The combination of cinnamon and cloves gives the coffee a deliciously warm and spicy flavor, while the brown sugar gives it the perfect amount of sweetness.
It may take a bit of tweaking for you to discover how you like your Winter Spiced Coffee. You may want more spice or you may want less. However, when it comes to the type coffee, I’ve discovered it tastes best with either a French or a Dark Roast.
As is, this recipes makes 6 – 8 servings. You can find the full ingredients and instructions in the free printable recipe card below.
Ingredients to Make Winter Spiced Coffee
As I mentioned, it’s amazing the difference adding some everyday kitchen spices to your cup of coffee can make! This Winter Spiced Coffee is the perfect example.
All you need to make it is:
- ground cinnamon
- cloves
- brown sugar
- water
- Dunkin’ Donuts French Roast or Dark Roast
Garnishes (optional)
- Whipped cream
- Shaved milk chocolate
- Dash Ground Cinnamon
- Cinnamon Stick
Instructions to Make Winter Spiced Coffee
Making Winter Spiced Coffee is as easy as making any cup of coffee. In four simple steps you’ll have a warm, fragrant cup of coffee you’ll love!
- Add Water
- Add Coffee to the filter basket
- Add Spices on top of coffee
- Brew
Pro tip: in some coffee makers the addition of spices can make your filter overflow. However, adding the spices to a coffee cup, then pouring hot coffee over the top works just as well. Just make sure you stir well, and let it sit for a few so that the cinnamon and sugar will dissolve. Getting the correct amount of flavor this way is a bit more trial and error, but once you do, you’ll love it!
Take Your Coffee To Another Level
If you want to take your Winter Spiced Coffee to a whole new level, add some toppings!
This hot Winter Spiced coffee, topped with whipped cream and shaved chocolate serves as a perfect after dinner treat, especially during the long nights of winter.
Simply add a huge swirl of whipped cream to the top of your Winter Spiced Coffee. Then apply a generous sprinkling of fresh shaved milk chocolate.
It’s decadent and delicious, and worth every single calorie. SO good!
If you’re looking for the perfect coffee drink to chase away that winter chill, or you just want to treat yourself to a fabulously delicious coffee drink, you must try this recipe. I promise you won’t be disappointed!

I’ve been enjoying Dunkin’ Donuts Coffee in French Roast Blend and Dunkin’ Dark Roast lately. They’re nice and smooth and give you the perfect kick of caffeine without any harsh bitterness. And they work perfectly with this Winter Spiced Coffee recipe!

How ironic. I usually drink my coffee black. But today of all days, I spiced it up and added a little bit of skim milk, cinnamon and vanilla. Thank you for the recipe. I will definitely try it.
