1 tsp (5 g) gingerbread spice or 1/2 tsp of each cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, clove, cardamom and allspice.
1 tsp (5 mL) maple syrup
1/4 cup (60 mL) prepared espresso, hot

Gingerbread spice, to taste
Optional: Gingerbread cookie

Instructions

Step
In a small pot, over medium heat, add milk, gingerbread spice, and maple syrup.
Step
Whisk the mixture for about 3 minutes until it becomes frothy. Set aside.
Step
Pour the espresso into a mug, then top it with the frothed milk mixture.
Step
Garnish with whipped cream, a dash of gingerbread spice, and a small gingerbread cookie, if desired.

Why does 3.25% milk make for a better frothing experience? It creates a creamier texture, and when warmed and frothed, it yields a smoother and more delicious foam.
