A blend of spices centered around ginger, often including cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg.
Compound of 'ginger' and 'spice,' from Latin 'species' (appearance, kind). The term describes both the plant itself and blended spice mixtures.
The classic gingerspice blend is nearly identical to 'pumpkin spice'—the only real difference is that pumpkin spice has less ginger and more warming spices like cloves, yet somehow pumpkin spice became trendy in 2010 while gingerspice remained quietly essential in baking.
