It’s just too good to be true.
October/November = pumpkin spice everything. December = gingerbread spice everything.
At least that’s how it is in my book. So before about a month ago I had only heard of regular lattes and never oatmeal lattes. I just had to give the oatmeal latte a try, and here is my spin on it for the holidays!
I hope you enjoy it!

Gingerbread Oatmeal Latte.

- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/2 cup black coffee

- Heat 1-1/2 cups milk, oats, maple syrup, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves in a small saucepan over low heat, whisking frequently. Heat until oats are fully cooked. Remove from heat, and divide oatmeal between two cups.
