The season of rain is here. This season is beautiful, the rain drops, wind, cold air, and warm drinks are what makes this season one of my favorites. If you live in a region where it rains heavily and it becomes a bit cold, you and your body would crave something warm. No matter how much iced tea or coffee we like, in such a season, drinking warm beverages is best. It helps us stay cozy and feel warm, while ensuring we don’t catch a cold.
Also, the feeling that you get when you are watching the rain drops while sipping a hot cocoa or coffee is the best. So, to honor this weather, here are five best warm drinks that will compliment the rain in the best way.
Let’s check them out.
1. Cinnamon coffee
So, whether you like black coffee or a coffee with milk and cream, adding a pinch of cinnamon in it will enhance its flavour ten times. Also, it has health benefits, like it is anti-inflammatory, controls sugar level in the blood, and is high in antioxidants. So, when you are brewing your coffee (black or otherwise), add a pinch of cinnamon, or its stick, and let it brew for a while. If you can, don't add sugar so that you have a healthy and warm drink.
To make it more flavoursome, you can choose from tons of Nespresso pods flavour online. They come in hazelnut, vanilla, and more. Also, pod coffee brewing is simple, hassle-free, and quick.
2. Ginger tea
Another healthy and warm drink is ginger tea. The best way to make it is to boil water with ginger roots (cut or crushed) and when it boils, let the tea bag, or leaves seep in it for 10 minutes. After that, pour it in a cup, if the taste is strong for you, you can add a bit of lemon or honey in it.
If you cannot drink black coffee, add two tablespoons of frothed milk in it, it will taste amazing. But do try to avoid sugar.
3. Hot cocoa

3. Hot cocoa
Another healthy warm drink which is also indulgent is hot chocolate. When you get it right, it is a great drink full of nutrients as cocoa is rich in antioxidants promoting immunity in the body. It also has anti-inflammatory properties.
Make sure that you buy a hot cocoa brand which doesn’t have added sugar. There are tons of recipes available on the internet for making hot cocoa. My favourite is to add 2 tbsp of cocoa in one cup of milk (skim or low-fat), add some dark chocolate pieces, and stir it well. When it becomes a bit thick, pour it in a cup. You can add whipped cream to it as well.
4. Red wine
So, it is not a warm drink, but red-wine is healthy and can keep you warm on cold rainy nights. Just drink it in limit so that you don’t get drunk on it.
5. Almond spiced milk
Almond milk is low in calories and is healthy as well. Also, making it at home is easy. Just soak some almonds overnight or for a few hours. Peel the outer covering and then grind it with water. It will turn milky, sieve the milk, and discard the excess pulp. Now, boil it with some spices like vanilla or cinnamon or nutmeg and drink it.
