Notes
How to make a gingerbread latte
Warm milk of choice in the microwave or heat in a frother (this milk frother is the one I use).
If you’re using a milk frother, add 1 to 2 tablespoons of gingerbread syrup to milk while it froths. If heating in the microwave, add the gingerbread syrup after the milk is heated and use a handheld frother or whisk to mix it in.
Top with espresso or coffee and enjoy immediately!
