Costa launches its autumn menu and gingerbread lattes are back

COSTA Coffee has launched its autumn menu and it includes a number of seasonal fan favourites.

Gingerbread Lattes are back on the menu along with a Black Forest and Cream Hot Chocolate and a limited edition Gingerbread latte in a can.

The seasonal range has arrived a little later this year, but features a number of new tasty treats.

The Gingerbread and Cream Latte sees a milky coffee laced with a generous slurp of syrup and adorned with a mini gingerbread man.

Gingerbread is a major theme on the menu, which also includes a Gingerbread Latte Vegan Cookie and a Gingerbread Muffin for those who need a snack with the caffeine fix.

But the coffee chain's popular menu isn't just for those visiting their local outlet this year.

Costa Express machines, which you can find in Shell service station, now also let you order a Gingerbread latte or hot chocolate on-the-go.

And with warmer-than-usual weather persisting, some coffee addicts might prefer a cold drink.

Costa has the answer here too, in the form of a Gingerbread Latte in a can.

Classicists can still enjoy an indulgent Costa Hot Chocolate without the gingerbread. Costa has launched a vegan-friendly powdered chocolatey drink for sipping on the sofa.

The arrival of the Costa autumn range comes more than a month after Starbucks launched its own autumn menu.

The US coffee chain announced the return of its pumpkin spice latte back in August, along with an Iced Apple Crisp Macchiato.

But caffeine-addicts might want to keep one eye on their spending too. A recent investigation by The Sun revealed which are the best and worst value coffee loyalty schemes.
