Gingerbread Syrup/Lattes
A delicious syrup for lattes, hot chocolate, ice cream, pancakes and waffles. It will store really well in the fridge for months.
So I was at the Changi airport and feeling the need to eat/drink something last minute before jumping on the flight and also needing free wifi, and Starbucks was going to cover both requirements! I think it must have been around Christmas time, even though I cannot remember now. Anyway...Gingerbread latte caught my eye and I knew instantly that I could reproduce it...and here it is. You can use this syrup with a whole lot more than lattes I might add. Think the traditional coffee or tea, but think ice cream and pancakes and waffles. A little bit naughty but very nice. Enjoy.
