Making your Caramel Apple Spice is as easy as following these steps:

1. Combine Cider and Spices: In a medium saucepan, combine the apple cider, cinnamon, and nutmeg over medium heat.
2. Heat Until Warm: Stir occasionally and heat the mixture until it is warm but not boiling, about 5-7 minutes.
3. Add Caramel: Stir in the 1 tablespoon of caramel sauce and continue to heat until fully dissolved.
4. Incorporate Milk: Slowly add the milk to the mixture, stirring constantly until heated through.
5. Optional Coffee: If desired, add the brewed coffee for an extra kick. Stir to combine.
6. Serve in Mugs: Remove from heat and pour the mixture into your favorite mugs.
7. Top with Whipped Cream: Generously top each mug with whipped cream for creamy goodness.
8. Drizzle Extra Caramel: Drizzle additional caramel sauce over the whipped cream for a sweet touch.
9. Garnish with Apples: Add a slice of apple on the rim of the mug for an appealing presentation.

These steps will guide you in easily crafting this delightful drink that captures the essence of the season.
