Gingerbread White Hot Chocolate

I can’t believe I had never thought to combine gingerbread and white chocolate before! The idea crossed my mind after making my peppermint white hot chocolate a few weeks back.  When I went to grab my peppermint simple syrup, I saw my jar of gingerbread simple syrup and I had the great idea to make the same recipe, but with the gingerbread syrup! I am so happy that I did that because this is such an amazing drink.  The gingerbread flavor just makes it feel like Christmas in a cup and it is just so perfect!

What is white hot chocolate made of?

White hot chocolate is so easy to make!
