Top Tips
- Use the freshest and best quality coffee beans you can for a smooth and rich espresso.
- Adjust the amount of gingerbread syrup according to your preference for sweetness.
- Feel free to experiment with different types of milk like almond, oat, or soy for varying flavors and textures. I am currently loving rich and creamy soy milk.
- For a festive touch, garnish your latte with a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg.
- Make your gingerbread syrup at home for a more natural and homemade taste. It's easier than you'd think with my easy to follow gingerbread syrup recipe.
