Some of us want to enjoy bottomless java chips, whipped cream, and caramel in-and-outs all week long, but sometimes (actually, if we’re being honest, most of the time), it’s not the pick-me-up that moms need.

So, below, we’ve rounded up 10, easy-to-make drinks to make at home when you’re craving a morning or afternoon treat—enjoy, mamas!
