Gingerbread Eggnog Mocha Latte

I have to tell you a secret... I don't like the taste of eggnog alone..... BUT...  I do like the taste of it in baking and in my coffee.  And what could be better for you Christmas morning coffee then a Gingerbread Eggnog Mocha Latte.

As the weather turns colder and the snow starts falling a Gingerbread Eggnog Mocha Latte is perfect after being outside ~ skating, skiing, playing in the snow or even snow shoveling like what I do.

  3. Oh boy does that look good, I printed it for my grocery list...cannot wait to try this on a cold morning. I like eggnog alone but I don't seem to crave it like everyone else....So this is right up my alley to get rid of the rest of it after I have my one token cup! lol

    1. I hope you enjoy it... It is perfect for a little flavour but not too much eggnog.

  4. I don't drink coffee, but this looks easy enough to adapt to a hot chocolate. Yum!

    1. I only like eggnog this way as I find that it is too thick for my liking.

  7. We raise chickens and my husband has started making real eggnog. This recipe would add a bit more flair and yum-factor.
