Jeg elsker kaffe med smag og Starbucks gingergread Latte er ikke en undtagelse. Men hvordan kan jeg få mange gode kaffeøjeblikke uden at købe dem på Starbucks?!
Jeg gik straks hjem og fandt denne opskrift og den holder hvad den lover.

Ingredients
For Gingerbread Syrup
- 2 cups water
- 1½ cups granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons ground ginger (knust ingefær)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (kanel)
- ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract (vanilje essens, men jeg brugte vaniljepulver fordi jeg ikke hade den gode kvalitet der hjemme)
For Gingerbread Latte
- ½ cup milk
- 8 oz coffee*
- 3-4 tablespoons gingerbread syrup (according to taste)
- Whipped cream
- Ground cinnamon
Instructions
For Gingerbread Syrup
- Combine the water, sugar, ginger and cinnamon in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil, whisking constantly. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, for 15 minutes, stirring frequently. Remove from heat when the syrup has thickened somewhat. Stir in vanilla extract and allow to cool slightly before using.
- Once cooled you can store the syrup in a tupperware or bottle in the fridge for about 2 months. Shake well before using after the syrup has been refrigerated.
For Gingerbread Latte, Makes 1 Serving
- Pour milk into your coffee mug. Stir the syrup and add desired amount to mug. Heat milk-syrup mixture in the microwave until hot, about 1 minute. Pour in brewed coffee (I just stick my coffee mug under my Keurig at this point and hit the 8oz setting). Top with whipped cream and a sprinkle of ground cinnamon.
Update 12/9/14: Several folks have emailed me asking how thick the gingerbread syrup should get. I generally let it thicken until it has the consistency of maple syrup. You want it to be a thin, but pourable syrup that is not as liquid as plain water. Hope this helps!
