Mmmmm gingerbread latte.

[Deleted]

The only time of the year a $4 latte is worth it.

I haven't tried the gingerbread yet. I'm going to have to do that tomorrow morning.

[daisybuchannan]

Yum!

I got a skinny Peppermint Mocha this morning.

The good news is, it was awesome (not chemically tasting like a lot of the sugar free stuff).

Bad news? 5 bucks. WTF.

Zero guilt though, bc some jerk baby woke me up at 6.

[wowhead]

Gingerbread is sooooo much better than pumpkin spice!!

I wait all year for the gingerbread. I have withdrawals in February when they stop selling it.

Although I found that if I put a tiny bit of vanilla extract, cinnamon and nutmeg in with my ground coffee at home, it comes out similar.

Peppermint WHITE CHOCOLATE Mocha is the best. I ordered a regular Peppermint Mocha once and was so annoyed with myself.

[wambam]

One of my favorite chocolate brands, Theo, makes a gingerbread chocolate bar that is balls to the walls amazing.

Do you remember the year they tried to sell that impostor ginger snap latte?! I was pissed for a year!

I always buy a bottle of the syrup from Starbucks.  1 bottle = gingerbread lattes for most of the year.

I tried to do that once, because I have a nespresso. They treated that shit like pantyhose during WWII and refused to sell it to me.

Bastards!!!  One near me has a wall of syrups for sale so I've never had that problem.

I am waiting for just the right evening to settle down with a peppermint white chocolate mocha. It needs to be perfect.

Peppermint mocha!

I tried one yesterday (I always get the gingerbread) and it is sooo much better than the gingerbread latte!

[leahmel]

They changed the recipe this year. It's got a molasses swirl and is even better. I've had 2 already, and I rarely go to Starbucks normally.

[blondemoment123]

I had the peppermint white mocha the other day and it was soo sweet. I used to love them.

I'm back to my usual caramel lattes now.

[game blouses]

They don't have them at Coffee Bean this year

It's good. My usual order is a nonfat latte with 2 pumps vanilla and 2 toffee nut, the regular sweeteners though bc those taste like chemicals to me in the sugar free versions.

They're back. Sooooo good the other day!

[bonquiqui]

To me it sounds good in theory, but I only drink plain black coffee.  Maybe I should give this a shot, because gingerbread is yummy.
