- Bring mixture to a boil then reduce heat and simmer syrup, uncovered, for 15 minutes.
- Remove the syrup from the heat when it's done and slap a lid on it.
- To make a pumpkin latte at home: In a small saucepan, stir pumpkin puree into milk.
- Add syrup(s), remember to use 2 tablespoons Gingerbread Syrup.
- Heat gently until steaming, stirring occasionally.

I am a vegetarian and I love to cook. I have been trying to incorporate whole wheat into my baked goods and have been eating much healthier foods. I really don't have a favorite cookbook, I mainly try different recipes out on the internet.
