Gingerbread Latte
Ingredients
Instructions
Brew the Espresso
If you have an espresso machine, pull two shots of espresso. The robust coffee flavor will complement the sweet and spicy notes of the gingerbread syrup. Alternatively, if you don't have an espresso machine, brew a strong cup of your favorite coffee.
Add Gingerbread Syrup and Cinnamon
Pour the hot coffee or espresso into your favorite mug. Stir in the gingerbread syrup and ground cinnamon. Adjust the amount of syrup to your liking – more for a sweeter taste, less for a subtler flavor.
Steam or Froth The Milk
If you're lucky enough to have an espresso machine, steam the milk using its wand. Don't fret if you don't have an espresso machine. You can still achieve a creamy froth using your preferred method. Heat the milk until it's hot but not boiling, and then froth it using a milk frother, a whisk, or even a covered jar – whatever suits your kitchen arsenal.
Add the Milk
Pour the milk over the espresso and gingerbread simple syrup.
Top it Off
Dollop a generous amount of whipped cream on top of your gingerbread latte. This not only adds a delightful creaminess but also serves as a canvas for your final touch.
Garnish and Enjoy
Sprinkle a pinch of ground nutmeg on top of the whipped cream for an extra layer of warmth and flavor. Now, grab your cozy blanket, find a comfortable spot, and savor every sip of your homemade Gingerbread Latte.
