I have many habits I should probably kick…but always purchasing coffee “out” is NOT one of them! I’ve been making my own coffee drinks for over three years now, and it has truly made all the difference in my spending money. If you can kick that expensive latte habit, I promise you your bank account will thank you. During the holiday season, it is so tempting to try out fun coffee drinks, and even though the big chains don’t want you to know it, you CAN make festive coffee drinks at home!
Today I thought I would share a recent coffee concoction that is so yummy, ticks that caffeinated drink box, and is so super easy to make right at home: My Slow Cooker Gingerbread Latte! I am such a huge fan of gingerbread flavor, but it’s nice to get that from actual ingredients instead of a flavoring packet. This recipe is great because it’s so easy to set in your slow cooker and come back to later…and then you’ll have a delicious holiday treat! Let me know if you try this Gingerbread Latte recipe, and what you think of it!
