The use of whipped cream transcends its use in desserts. Whether you are making coffee, milkshakes or hot chocolates, it can elevate the taste of a variety of beverages. In the world of mixology, it is renowned to give thick and creamy texture to the drinks along with a hint of sweetness. Whether you are looking for something cool and refreshing for summer such as frozen mudslide or warm and comforting for winter like spiked hot chocolate, whipped cream is suitable to elevate your drinks in every season.
