Vegan Gingerbread Latte

This Vegan Gingerbread Latte combines a gingerbread spiced syrup made with ginger, gingerbread spices, and brown sugar, simmered with espresso or coffee, then blended with frothed non-dairy milk for a warm, spiced beverage. The drink balances sweet, spicy, and slightly bitter notes from the coffee, with the creamy texture from the almond, soy, or coconut milk. It's a cozy, dairy-free choice for those wanting a seasonal latte with aromatic gingerbread flavors.

Notes

  • You can prepare a larger batch of gingerbread syrup by simmering coffee, minced ginger, gingerbread spice, molasses, and sugar and store it refrigerated for up to one week.
  • Combine the syrup with frothed non-dairy milk when ready to serve, heating gently to maintain flavor and texture.
  • For a cold version, blend chilled non-dairy milk with the chilled syrup and optional coconut cream.
