Please excuse the blogosphere as we make the transition from pumpkin spice to gingerbread lattes.

Gingerbread Latte 8

I truly love this time of year. There’s just something in the air. Possibly the mint chocolate candle I bought? Or the gingerbread latte I made. Very mysterious. Don’t even get me started on the Chipmunk Christmas album I’ve been playing… on loop. No judgement.

Apparently there is a very specific timeline for seasonal ingredient consumption. The pumpkin culture is nigh from the dawn of fall to midnight on Thanksgiving. Then it’s Christmas carol and gingerbread time jingling all the way.

Gingerbread Latte 7

Frankly, I respect but do not understand these purists. I eat pumpkin in June. The overwhelming urge to put up holiday decorations begins in October. Christmas carols know no seasons. Welcome to Kellytopia! Rainbows and unicorns galore, and you can have as many gingerbread lattes as you want. Is that redundant?

Anyway, this latte. I ADORE it. It’s super easy, doesn’t cost an arm and a leg like some lattes do (which is good because I do enjoy having all my limbs), and is only 50 calories. Taste-wise, I think I actually like it better than the Starbucks’s version!

I know. I didn’t believe it either.

Plus it gets even better! The wonderful folks at NuNaturals (AKA the makers of the greatest strevia in the whole flipping world) have generously offered to award four very lucky Foodie Fiasco readers with a fabulous load of swag! I can’t tell you how excited I was to receive mine. If you’re one of my veterans (bless your soul), you know how long I’ve loved NuNaturals. I’m having some in my tea right now!

We all know this is what every teenage girl should be fangirling over.

Fire up your microwaves. Get ready to show up Starbucks.

Gingerbread Latte 10

Start by gathering your stevia and spice and everything nice.

It’s even photogenic! Is there anything stevia can’t do?

No. No there is not.

Gingerbread Latte 2

Heat for a bit until is gets all warm and frothy. Whisk the living daylights out of it. Work that arm you get to keep. Or just use a blender. It is your cup of joe!

Gingerbread Latte 3

Pour into a big cozy mug, add as much coffee as you like, and thoroughly enjoy.

Feel free to top with some extra frothed milk if you’re feeling all fancy.

  1. I will probably use it on everything as well because I'm from Germany and we don't really have stevia here like you guys do. So I've been dying to try some real stevia for ages!!!

  3. I also use stevia for everything! :D But to give some examples, I use it in my coffee, morning cereal, unsweetened yogurt, protein bars, baking, etc.
    Reply

  16. Wow! How generous! Well let's see, I would use the lemon stevia for anything that had to do with orange or lemon, I haven't tasted that one but it sounds amazing! I would use the vanilla for my coffee, quite possibly in this recipe ;) I would use the cherry vanilla for muffins and other baked goods, and I would use the white stevia powder for....well everything else! Thanks for the recipe Kelly! Can't wait to try! :D

  17. I would use stevia in oatmeal for breakfast and in pumpkin bread because I believe in pumpkin until late Feb . . . at least!
    Reply

  24. What would I not use it for?? I use mostly in baking or oatmeal. I think in coffee it's a little bitter or strange but absolutely all my cakes and cookies!
    Reply

  25. Honestly I use stevia in just about everything. My favorite though is to put vanilla stevia in my chocolate oatmeal. I use Giradelli unsweetened cocoa in my instant oats and it just needs a slight bit of sweetness that I expect from my chocolate. I have never tried lemon or cherry vanilla but and open to all things new.

  26. I think the question is- how do I NOT use stevia! The vanilla I would use in my coffee everyday. The lemon I would use to make lemon frosting for sugar cookies. Cherry vanilla has icecream written all over it :)

  41. I LOVE stevia! Into everything it goes, from pancakes, to homemade ketchup, to lattes, and anything i can get my hands on. I'm fangirling already.
    Reply

  42. Oh wow! I've been dying to try NuNaturals Stevia, as it seems to be a favorite among my favorite bloggers. I think I'd definitely use it in my coffee and tea, and the first actual recipe I'd attempt with it would be your strawberry clafoutis! I know strawberries aren't really in season right now, but I've been meaning to try that recipe for a while now!

  44. I love NUNATURALS stevia drops!!!! absolutely obsessed. I use the fruit ones (like cherry) with frozen fruit and ice to make SLUSHIESS!!! or Iced Tea! yumm P.S. I liked you and NuNaturals on Facebook!

  60. I love nunaturals! Easily the tastiest stevia on the market! I put it in my morning coffee and to sweeten plain yogurt!
    Reply

  66. Ohh my i have a big sweet tooth, i love almost everything sweet. The possibilities are endless of what i would use the stevia on!!! I would probably use it on your recipes and tea (: .....so pretty much everything hahaa.
    Reply

  68. I will use stevia in SO many things, actually...all of the Food Fiasco recipes I make, my teas and coffees, a few drops in my spaghetti sauces, on my fruit and in my Greek yogurt. I use it so much! It is the best.
    Reply

  73. Love love LOVE stevia. With fruit, it is the only sweetener I use (in non-holiday creations). I go through a giant bottle of it about once a month (thank you Amazon Subscribe and save!). I use it in cookies, bars, dressings, tea, homemade chocolate, etc, etc, etc.

  77. I honestly use Nunaturals stevia drops every. Single. Day. My favourite way to use them is mixed through greek yoghurt along with a teaspoon of cocoa powder - delish! Thanks for the great giveaway!

  80. I see no problem with fangirling over an ingredient. I'm desperately clutching onto my last year of teenagerdom myself and heck I fangirl every time I go into a grocery store and stand in the baking aisle haha. Love how you've cut the calories out of this drink! Starbucks always tastes so good, but the calories are a real diet buster.
    Reply

  81. I use stevia in just about everything too! I think I'm addicted! Always in my coffee and tea but I love to make healthy chocolate sauce with stevia, baking cocoa powder and a little water! Mmmmmmm!!!
    Reply

  83. I use stevia for everything: hot chocolates, baking and raw chocolate and pretty much anything in between. I love the idea of the flavours and having liquid stevia would be super handy! I feel the christmas thing right now I've got michael buble the biggest bub in the world on loop :) Oh and i like you on facey!
    Reply

  88. I use plain liquid and powdered stevia for everything but have never tried the flavored kind. It would be interesting to add a shot of flavor to my usual reicpes.

  93. Since I'm living in Taiwan this year, I can't find stevia ANYWHERE!! I'd love to use it in my tea because Taiwanese tea can be a bit bitter :( Also everything is sweetened with sugar here, so I need to be able to get SOME sweetness in my life!
    Reply

  94. I used to think tea was gross. People even threatened to kick me out of the south for not drinking the stuff. Then I bought a pack of raspberry green tea and a box of stevia packets. It was a revolutionary moment in my life. It's official: I'm hooked. I've been playing with stevia ever since to see what other ways it can make my life a little sweeter.

  95. OMG this looks delicious!! The perfect thing to cure me of my Starbucks addictions... :) I would use the stevia in my morning oatmeal, smoothies, and pancakes! Thanks for the wonderful giveaway!
    Reply

  99. I would use the stevia for baking healthy holiday goodies and also in my breakfast greek yogurt and oatmeal! But I use stevia in everything else pretty much too!
    Reply

  105. I will use the stevia in everything from my morning tea to cottage cheese with cinnamon and roasted sweet potatoes (my favorite sweet snack thanks to stevia!). And with new flavors I will experiment my days away!!

  109. I just recently began using stevia mostly inspired b y you. When i found out it was a natural sugar free sweetener i was ecstatic because ive been trying to ween my dad (a diabetic) off sweet and low. I so far made wayyyy too many mug-cakes, your whole wheat pretzels, cookies,and i have to say im hooked. im planning on trying a stevia brownie recipe this week end crossing my fingers. I followed you in pintrist and subscribed to the newsletter

  115. I use stevia on EVERYTHING too!!! My favourite flavour is definitely the caramel liquid drops which I use to make salted caramel flavoured oatmeal, caramel coffee frappucinos with almond milk in the blender for a low calorie starbucks copycat drink (I'm all for deliciousness that can be imitated at home for a fraction of the cost and calorie count :-) ) I add the powdered sweetener sachets, cinnamon, all spice mix and ground ginger to pureed pumpkin for a creamy and nutritious treat. Really I could go on endlessly, as the possibilities when you are creative can go on forever... let your sweetener imaginations go WILD!!!!!!! (Also I have subscribed to your newsletter)

  116. I use stevia for everything as well! My recent habit is to put a bit into almond milk for my breakfast cereals. I use unsweetened whole grain cereals which could be pretty bland and boring, but by adding stevia to the milk it makes it taste like the sweet sweet cereals I loved as a kiddo! without the horrible junk!
    Reply

  118. What would I use it on? What wouldn't I use it on?! I l-o-v-e to bake, and sometimes I fear that all of this sugar is turning straight into problems. I make so many sweet treats, and they're all just making me bigger and bigger! I also can't bake for my one friend, because of her diabetes, so some stevia would be perfect. It would satisfy my sweet tooth while satisfying my diet plan!!

  119. Ohmygoodness. I use stevia all.the.time. It is the greatest invention in the world of sweetness, so far as I am concerned. I use stevia in: my daily mug of coffee, tea, oatmeal, pumpkin pie, butternut squash, cottage cheese, yogurt, ice cream....the list goes on and on. I haven't really tried the flavored stevia before, but I would love to try it! Especially in coffee and oatmeal. Because you can't consume either one without stevia. I have to tell you that I LOVE your website! My sister told me about your website as one of my birthday presents and I have faithfully followed your posts ever since! I feel a kindred spirit with you and your love of cookie dough and cake batter. :)

  123. Oh my god I love that mint chocolate candle! i recently bought it also and i can't stop burning it! and I make something pretty similar to the latte almost every night. In mine i put half oat milk and half almond milk in a milk frother (i use oat milk because I've fount that it froths better than almond milk alone, and its very tasty!) then i add a little honey and vanilla and pour a bunch of cinnamon on top! its delicious! :)

  126. What an awesome giveaway! Honestly, I've never tried nunaturals stevia, but I do use stevia in pretty much everything that requires sweetener since going sugar free a couple of years ago. I've been wanting to try that brand for a long time!! I just have to say that you are a VERY talented young woman. I enjoy your blog and I honestly wouldn't believe you were a teenager if I didn't know it already :) God bless!

  131. I use Stevia in a lot of different foods...my morning coffee, afternoon tea, cool evening hot chocolate, fresh squeezed juices, blended smoothies, yummy cakes, cookies, breads...sugar-free ice creams and yogurts...I know there is more!

  137. I will use my stevia to make lemonade! And vanilla to make cupcakes! and the cherry to make cherry chocolate smoothies! The possibilities are endless :) The stevia packets will live in my purse, for when I go out for tea.

  141. I love this recipe! I did everything, however on facebook the name is Thomas Fons. I would use stevia in baking, drinks, basically anywhere I would use sugar! And I would use the liquid stevia in smoothies! Yum!

  142. I'm not a coffee drinker but I'll be trying this as a steamer instead 'cause it looks fab! I always use NuNaturals Vanilla Stevia in anything sweet. It's so smooth! I've been curious about their other flavors so I'll be looking forward to any recipes you use them in. I enjoy your blog!

  148. I love NuNaturals! I use it in homemade hot cocoa! Also pretty much all of my baked goods...and everything else haha!

  156. I use stevia in my coffee, yogurt, dinners, and baked goods. I eat kelp noodles with savory spices but I add a little stevia to have that salty/sweet. SO good!! Oh, I also put it on my salads: mustard, stevia, and vinegar!
    Reply

  160. I use stevia all of the time! I use it in my porridge in the morning to sweeten them, I make a low calorie hot chocolate sweet, I sweeten my herbal teas with it, I use it in my cakes and cookies, when my sauces need sweetening i use it, I mix it with cinnamon to sprinkle on my apples, I experiment with it! (All the time) and I use it when making frozen fruit pops to make it a little bit sweeter. (Liked both on Facebook! :)

  169. I love stevia in my overnight coconut chia oats. I just soak oatmeal and chia is raw almond milk over night, then in the morning, I add coconut flakes, stevia, cinnamon and vanilla, plus any fruit I have that is ripe. To thicken it up into a yogurt consistency, I add coconut flour. One of my go to breakfasts it's so yummy!

  175. Stevia how I love thee, let me count the ways, one one thousand, two two thousand ..... I use stevia in my greek yogurt, in my tea, in my coffee, in my baking, my mornings would be incomplete without my London Fog, sweetened with stevia!!

  176. OMG I definitely have to do this! :O amazing!!! I stopped using syrup on my pancakes and I started using stevia AMAZING! It would be amazing if you did a vegan steviai sweetened jelly!!
