Eggnog season is almost here, and this latte is the best way to welcome it.
Gingerbread and eggnog are two delicious holiday flavors that get combined in this gingerbread eggnog latte. It's made with a homemade gingerbread spice syrup, eggnog, and our delicious St. Nick's Cinnamon Swirl Coffee.
Make it with Bean-to-Brew: Our Bean-to-Brew Espresso & Coffee Machine grinds whole beans and brews a fresh 2 oz espresso or a 6 or 8 oz cup of coffee at the touch of a button, so this recipe starts with freshly ground coffee.
Ingredients:
Gingerbread Syrup
- 1 c. water (225g)
- 4 1/3 tbsp. molasses (65g)
- 3/4 c. dark brown sugar (150g)
- 1 tsp. gingerbread spice
Whipped Cream
- 3 1/2 tbsp. heavy whipping cream (50g)
- 1 tbsp. gingerbread syrup
Gingerbread Eggnog Latte
- 2 tbsp. gingerbread syrup
- 8 oz. eggnog
- 3 oz. strongly brewed PapaNicholas St. Nick's Cinnamon Swirl Coffee.
Instructions:
Step 1: Make the gingerbread syrup. To a small saucepan, add in the water, brown sugar, molasses, and gingerbread spice
Step 2: Set the mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally until it comes to a simmer. Allow the mixture to simmer for 5 minutes, then remove it from the heat.
Step 3: Transfer the syrup to a heat-safe container and store it in the fridge until you're ready to use it.
Step 4: Make the whipped cream. Add the heavy whipping cream, and 1 tbsp. of gingerbread syrup to a small mixing bowl. Beat until soft peaks form.
Step 5: Make the gingerbread eggnog latte. Pour 2 tbsp. of the gingerbread syrup into the bottom of a coffee cup. Steam some eggnog, then pour it over the gingerbread syrup.
Step 6: Pour in the freshly brewed espresso.
Step 7: Top the drink off with the whipped cream and a dusting of gingerbread spice.
Serve and enjoy!
