But look, I get it, seasonal menus are difficult with unique flavors, special prep instructions, and stress!<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Dunkin-Toasted-Gingerbread-Signature-Latte-First-Latte.jpeg?resize=600%2C600&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Dunkin Toasted Gingerbread Signature Latte First Latte\" title=\"Dunkin' Toasted Gingerbread Signature Latte First Latte.jpeg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The first version of the Toasted Gingerbread Latte I received had nothing on top. No whipped cream, no drizzle, no cinnamon sugar. It was overwhelmingly sweet and tasted like a lightly spiced hot chocolate. If I got this at a freezing cold football game, I wouldn&#8217;t be mad, but I was definitely missing any trace of the traditional gingerbread flavor (cloves, cinnamon, nutmeg, molasses, etc).<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Dunkin-Toasted-Gingerbread-Signature-Latte-2nd.jpeg?resize=600%2C800&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Dunkin Toasted Gingerbread Signature Latte 2nd\" title=\"Dunkin Toasted Gingerbread Signature Latte 2nd.jpeg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Feeling like surely something had gone wrong, I tried a second Dunkin&#8217; location a few days later and received an entirely different beverage. This time, there was whipped topping, chocolate drizzle (the website says this was supposed to be caramel, but I didn&#8217;t mind this modification), and a cinnamon spice sprinkle topping. Again, I&#8217;m not sure this was &#8220;correct&#8221; either, but it was a massive improvement from the first attempt.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Dunkin-Toasted-Gingerbread-Signature-Latte-2nd-Top.jpeg?resize=600%2C684&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Dunkin Toasted Gingerbread Signature Latte 2nd Top\" title=\"Dunkin Toasted Gingerbread Signature Latte 2nd Top.jpeg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"684\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This second version of the Toasted Gingerbread Latte had a much stronger spice flavor both in the drink and from the cinnamon sugar topping. It was still ridiculously sweet and could pass more as gingerbread spice hot chocolate, with almost no coffee taste coming through. It was much more enjoyable with any type of topping accoutrements. I do think Dunkin&#8217; could have done more with the notion of &#8220;toasted&#8221; (maybe if it was made with oatmilk?), and I would have loved more molasses flavor. But all-in-all, this wasn&#8217;t a total miss.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re a fan of sweet drinks, holiday spice, and random barista surprises (because WHO KNOWS how this drink is really supposed to be made), go ahead and roll the dice to see what your local Dunkin&#8217; decides the Toasted Gingerbread Signature Latte is.
