A few weeks ago, I received a HUGE package from the folks at Starbucks. Inside was another box, and then another and another. After all the packaging material had been removed, I finally discovered a gigantic martini glass filled and the ingredients needed to create a Gingerbread Lattetini. It was a bit too early in the day for a mixed drink, so I set the glass aside and forgot about it for a while. Fast forward to yesterday: I was cleaning off my desk and wondered what to do with this gigantic glass. Then I wondered why I was wondering what to do, after all there was only one option — drink up!
The Gingerbread Lattetini is a simple drink to whip up and is definitely festive. It's creamy, smooth, and sinfully sipable. It is, however, a tad on the sweet side; almost like an alcoholic version of a creamy cinnamon butterscotch candy. It is also simple to make, so if it sounds like something you'd like to indulge in, read more

That sounds good! I bet a nice vanilla biscotti would be a perfect dipper.
1Wait, did the folks at Starbucks just send you this out of the blue?
2You had me at "Gingerbread Lattetini."
It sounds like something I could have one of, but man, would I enjoy that one.
3That would be a cute gift for a gift exchange all wrapped up
4OMG, I NEED to make that...the gingerbread latte is all I've been drinking from Starbucks lately. So yummy.
5lovely gift!
6sounds yummy - but where's the ginger?
7Someday I will be so awesome that companies mail me random gifts.
8What a nice gift! I'm going to keep this idea in mind for a holiday present.
9Cute idea!!
10Not sure I would drink it though...
11can you buy this set in stores?
12Just noticed-the gingerbread man looks a tad broken.
13The set isn't available at stores (that I know of), but they definitely won't be at starbucks stores. Their alcoholic liqueurs are not available in their stores.
and yes, the gingerbread man cracked when I yanked it out of the box.
14Oohhh... that sounds sinfully delicious!
15I wish I could have Yum's packages forwarded to me
16Yum, you just wanted to take some abuse out on a man eh?
17I know PrincessTracy! I was just getting ready to say what a great place suagr must be to work with all the hook ups you guys get!
18Yep! Well...at least I have a goal now... relentlessly submit my resume (and winning personality) to teamsugar and all other product testers...I'd be an awesome product tester...
Hhhhmmmm....
19this sounds too yummy....way better than eggnog!!
20i love this! i can see myself giving it to friends as a gift.
21I would love to give these as a gift but it's so hard to find miniatures in my area.
22I wonder if you could froth up some eggnog in this instead of milk.
23PrincessTracy I like the way you think.
24I agree. I imagine you could get sick of it though.
25Never.
