Coffee Shop Recipes: House-Made Gingerbread Syrup

If you are in the mood to embrace a traditional coffee shop cold-weather flavor, you must try house-made gingerbread syrup!  While most notably a holiday beverage, gingerbread is perfect in your lattes and/or coffee any time it’s cold outside (although it is delicious in the iced versions as well!).  This is a great addition to your coffee beverages and/or pastries- FYI this syrup is also delicious on pancakes!  When contained in a glass bottle, its deep mahogany color is a beautiful addition to any coffee shop counter.
