Yes, yes, I admit it I am one of those people who's drink order is a mile long. I apologize.
I am just a sucker for hot flavored drinks, and I know how I like them!
For those who aren't aware, I am a huge tea drinker. I have to have it every day, it is my ultimate comfort food. Comfort drink. Whatever.
But I think we can all agree that there is something about coffee that is just irresistible, and for me that is the christmas drink- gingerbread latte.
But I have tried to cut out coffee almost entirely over the past year.
I'll try to keep my explanation short and sweet, but for about a year I had pretty severe acne, brought on by a missions trip to the Dominican Republic. It was pretty much the only negative experience of the whole trip.

I blame it on all the acidic food, and having to drink everything but the water...especially the coffee. Mmmmm I still crave Dominican coffee two years later.
But after lots of research and appointments I have whipped my skin back into shape through keeping a simple strategic diet. Which excludes coffee.
Dilemma: I don't drink coffee anymore, but I loooovvvveeee me some gingerbread latte.
Solution: My complicated, wonderful drink order.
A non-fat black tea latte with pumps of gingerbread.
(how many depends on the size)
It would be even better if they had almond milk, but they don't. Yet. I'm hopeful.
I haven't tried it with other syrups but I don't know why it wouldn't work just the same with any other flavor you could think of.
Try it and tell me if you like it, or if my imagination is just a little too vivid.
