Christmas Spiced Sugar for Coffee
Following on from the Winter Hot Chocolate, here’s an idea for the holidays – you can create spiced sugar to serve with coffee to your guests and loved ones for the entire holidays.
This was Sean’s idea, and he was going for a variation on a gingerbread taste to create a Christmas Latte (photo above) for our shops. The dark brown sugar makes it really tasty. Of course, as I have said, it could work in any coffee, or could even simply be added to warm milk for those off caffeine.
I am going to suggest all ground spices (as opposed to fresh) so that it will still taste good on New Year’s if you make it in the next week!
Spiced Brown Sugar for Coffee
Ingredients:
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1 tablespoon + 2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 500 g dark brown sugar
What to do:
- Simply combine the spices and the sugar and mix very well.
- Add to coffee according to taste.

Hi i was in your shop today in Dingle…5.20 for a large take-away vanilla latte -it was lovely but don’t you think its a tad pricey?

Thanks so much for commenting. I’m glad you liked the latte! We are indeed pricey. But then again, that latte was made with a real vanilla bean!
