If you know me, you know my ultimate favourite winter drink is the gingerbread latte. The day Starbucks comes out with this drink every year is a giant celebration. But, this year I was like, I wonder if I could make this at home… well, the answer is a big hell yes!

I made the gingerbread simple syrup and now I have this giant bottle of goodness in my fridge ready for coffees all fall and winter long. Heck, I am ready all year round!!!! Make it fancy with whipped cream and nutmeg or just have it as is. Don’t freak out at how much sugar is in the syrup. Remember, you are only using a few teaspoons at a time.

Grab your mason jar and get ready to fill it up with liquid gold, because this latte is worth gossiping about!!!!
