Notes

For a thicker creamer, use heavy cream. For a lighter creamer, use light cream or even whole milk.

For a purely smooth creamer, run it through the cheesecloth twice, using a new piece on the second strain. If you don't mind some texture, just run it through the strainer with no cheesecloth. It is personal preference.
