Georgia Hickory Steamer

  • Stir in SMC Hickory syrup.

  • Froth by using ONE of these methods, use a blender, use a frothing wand, whisk it, use a immersion blender in a deep container or pot on low, use a pump frother or french press. Any of these methods will work be careful when frothing your hot milk!
