Chocolate liqueur with gingerbread spice – notes
I found the recipe for this gingerbread liqueur on the Claudia magazine website and made it myself that very same day :)
If you like gingerbread flavors, you will love this liqueur.
It’s nicely chocolatey, distinctly gingerbread-flavored, and simply delicious.
Now I frequently add it to macchiato coffee – it turns out divine.
As for the taste – I added more gingerbread spice than was in the recipe, because after the first “testing” I decided it wasn’t enough for me.
By the way, I’ll add that it’s best to use homemade gingerbread spice.
Such a spice is much more aromatic than one from the store. And for one basic reason – check the ingredients of ready-made gingerbread spices. Very often, flour is listed first, and then very often sugar.
Neither flour, nor sugar, nor cocoa are needed in this spice.
Here you just need the spices themselves – cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, etc.
Second thing – in my opinion, the gingerbread liqueur presented by Claudia is definitely too thick – and it gets even thicker while “standing”.
That’s why I added hot water to it – this way I got over a liter of liqueur.
If you don’t want to add water, use half the chocolate and you can safely forgo adding chocolate-nut cream.
I also invite you to try the recipe for Christmas eggnog and for gingerbread latte (without this liqueur – you can add it additionally).
Ps. I recommend following my instagram for delicious and easy recipes!
