Here's a coffee shop-quality latte you can make right at home. Steamed milk and a warming ginger-cinnamon syrup turn some ordinary espresso into an extraordinary treat.

ingredients
Ginger Syrup
2 cups water
1 1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Latte
1/2 cup fresh espresso
8 ounces milk, steamed (with a little foam)
Garnish
whipped cream
ground nutmeg
candied ginger
directions
Make the ginger syrup by combining water, sugar, ginger, cinnamon and vanilla in a medium saucepan. Be sure the pan is not too small, or the mixture could easily bubble over.
Bring mixture to a boil then reduce heat and simmer syrup uncovered for 15 minutes. Remove the syrup from the heat when finished.
Make a double shot of espresso (1/2 cup), using an espresso machine or French press. Use the machine to steam 8 ounces of milk, or heat up the milk in the microwave if your machine does not foam and steam milk.
Make latte by first adding 1/2 cup espresso to a 16-ounce cup. Add 1/4 cup gingerbread syrup, followed by the steamed milk. Stir.
Top drink with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkle of nutmeg and candied ginger, if desired.
Makes one grande sized latte and syrup for 7 drinks.

Nutritional data has not been calculated yet.
The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.
Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.
