Gingerbread-flavoured everything to add a tasty festive twist to your favourite treats.
We all know that one person who goes all-in for the festive season. You know the one – they’ve fully decorated their home in lights and paper snowflakes by 1 December and rush to their local coffee shop for a peppermint latte every morning.
Maybe you are that person. Or perhaps you simply want to inject a little of their fun, festive energy into your life. Well, a good place to start is with some Christmassy flavouring. For instance, gingerbread. Nothing screams December quite like the spicy sweetness of gingerbread. And guess what? You can put it in just about everything – coffee, hot chocolate, tea, alcohol – and it’s always delicious.
