Ingredients
- 3/4 cup regular grind coffee

Directions
-
In an electric pot mix all the ground coffee with the 2 teaspoons of cinnamon in the filter basket.
- Add water and brew as usual.
-
In a one-quart saucepan, mix together milk, chocolate syrup, and sugar over low heat until the sugar dissolves.
- Add this to the carafe of brewed coffee then stir in the vanilla.
