Gingerbread Flat White Recipe | Festive Coffee Syrup for Cafes | Swa Artisanal Syrups
↓ Jump to recipeQuick answer
Gingerbread Flat White: 15 ml Swa Gingerbread Syrup + 30 ml espresso + 160 ml steamed milk. Pull, add syrup, pour microfoam. Garnish with cinnamon dusting. Ready in 3 minutes. Serves 1.
The gingerbread flat white is the drink that defines the season for specialty cafes — and then becomes the drink guests ask for year-round because no one sells it in January. The Swa Gingerbread Syrup brings warming ginger, cinnamon, and molasses to a flat white that's both festive and technically excellent: the spice character complements the espresso's roast notes rather than masking them, creating a coffee drink that's genuinely layered.
Don't pull it from the menu after December. Keep it as your permanent spiced flat white and watch the reorder rate justify itself. Explore Swa's spice range at drinkswa.com/pages/horeca.
