After Thanksgiving dinner, we served two specialty coffee recipes that were sent to us by Krups, a leader in coffee and espresso makers and other kitchen appliances.

Both recipes were hits, and we’ll continue to make them throughout the holiday season. Although guests will appreciate them, you don’t need a special occasion: Make them as a treat for yourself.

The second recipe is enhanced with liqueurs. You can also add a shot of coffee liqueur to the Gingerbread Latte.
