This was a nice mixture but I didn't really detect the cherry flavour once made, it was overtaken by the mint. I still enjoyed it though and it got even better when the candy cane melted into the coffee. Thanks!

This is a perfect latte after a nice long walk in the cold!! heated my milk in the microwave and added it to the coffee. Loved the melted candy cane bits in the coffee!! Thanks Annacia!

Lovely - really lovely!!! I made this for my parents whilst staying with them in the UK - we all loved it! I am not usually a lover of creme de menthe, but it DID work in this latte! We still had some candy canes left from Christmas, and garnished the drinks as suggested - they looked so pretty! Thanks Annacia for yet another great recipe! FT in the UK!
