Festive drinks are amazing, but until this year not a single festive beverage had made it to my lips (I know right, how did this happen?!) Becca introduced me to my first Salted Caramel Hot Chocolate in Costa on one of our recent London trips and let's just say the rest is history...
There's something really nice about getting cosy under the Christmas blanket and watching Arthur Christmas for the umpteenth time with a (insert favourite festive hot drink here!)
Strangely, I don't seem to live near (well, near enough for me to want to get up and go to) a Starbucks so I set about thinking how to make the perfect Gingerbread Latte at home.
You will need:
A mug (the more festive the better - I only have boring ones)
Your favourite brand of coffee
Milk
Gingerbread syrup (I bought mine from Whittards)
Whipped cream in a spray can
A kettle, water, electric and a spoon (if you want to get picky!)
Obviously there isn't really any technical skill required to make this drink, all you have to do is make up your coffee, pour in your milk and then add as much gingerbread syrup as you like! I then decorated mine with the whipped cream and drizzled some more syrup on the top to make it look pretty. The best thing is that you don't use up all the syrup in one use so you can make multiple festive drinks!
Hope you enjoy!

He's really cute, I picked him up as I couldn't find any gingerbread men at the shop! He was yummy! x
DeleteI love festive drinks but I haven't actually had a chance to try any this year. I might purchase a few syrups from my nearest Starbucks so I can make my own too!

I picked up a set from Whittards which has five in, cinnamon, gingerbread, caramel, hazelnut and vanilla. It was £10 so it was really good value x
DeleteI'm not a massive coffee person but I might try this with hot chocolate, that would be so nice!
