I'm talking about pumpkin spice, of course. The classic PSL was already on the regular rotation of drink orders at Starbucks before pool season ended and you know what? I'm not mad about it. The warm spice combo of cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves combined with winter squash already make up my favorite Thanksgiving pie but also infuses all sorts of innovative products—coffee, coffee creamer, quick bread, cereal, and cookies (to name a few of the dozens). Happy hour can even include pumpkin spice hard seltzers now! I'm not the only one filling my cart with pumpkin spice everything.
