The Coffee that Stole my Heart

Sometimes, you want a good cup of tea.
Sometimes, you want some great, dark, bold coffee.
And sometimes, you want something more.

This is why I made Cafe Mocha.
And Pumpkin Spice Latte.

This is why I made this:

After trying Starbucks’ Gingerbread latte (so good), I knew I had to make my own healthier (and more budget-friendly) version! And it is delicious!

Ingredients:

• 1 cup hot milk (non-dairy option: I suggest almond milk since it it creamier)
• 2 shots espresso, or 1/2 cup very strong coffee
• 2 tbsp unrefined cane sugar
• 3/4 tsp ground ginger
• 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
• 1 pinch nutmeg

Directions: Put all ingredients except nutmeg in a bowl and mix with an immersion blender (makes it foamy) or a whisk. Pour in a cup and sprinkle with nutmeg.

Serves 1.

I made my first one with more ginger and it was way too spicy! If you like your flavored lattes very sweet, add one more tbsp sugar.
