Gingerbread Latte at Starbucks....any good?
« on: January 02, 2008, 12:34:14 AM »
I was at Starbucks getting DD & myself a hot chocolate when I saw a picture of one...I love gingerbread and a latte is my favorite drink so thought it might be good.

Has anyone had one and are they any good?

I had a gingerbread latte at a coffee place when I stopped at the services off the M5 over Christmas, and it was lovely! It wasn't Starbucks or Costa, but I can't remember which place it was. I'm sure Starbucks will be similar, though.  :)

Is it a very strong flavor? I love gingerbread but it sounds pretty rich.

Sorry - I'm a wimp when it comes to flavored coffee.

yes and yes.
Get one while you can... they usually disappear after Christmas.

Yes, very yummy, but not overly powerful in flavor.  Just the right mix.

I love those and the eggnog lattes. I'm just sad there aren't any Starbucks here.

The gingerbread is a nice flavor, just the right levels of spice and sweet.

Fanastic is the word on that coffee! I like anything from there or anywhere where I don't have to think about how much milk or sugar. I also like flavouring and this coffee fits the bill for all those things. I wish I had a Starbucks closer to me :(

I remembered the name of the place I had my gingerbread latte - Coffee Primo. It was soooo yummy! They sold bottles of flavoured syrup, but didn't have any of the gingerbread stuff. I bought a bottle of hazelnut, though, and it's lovely!

Another thumbs up from me. The creme brulee lattes are also nice. 

My sister has sent me some french toast coffee which sounds bizarre but is sooo good.

Megan, I was reading in the paper a week or two back that they are putting a Starbucks in Foyleside.  Spring or summer this year.

I heard that too but then also heard it was a rumour. Time will tell. I also heard Carlisle Road
