One of the best things about changing seasons is switching up your pallet. This fall, instead of sticking with your traditional PSL, try one of these yummy fall drinks. I assure you, you will not be disappointed!
1. A Starbucks Toasted Graham Latte. If you don’t feel like getting adventurous in the kitchen and making your own drinks, let Starbucks make their new fall drink for you. Yes, Starbucks has added a brand new fall drink to their menu for the first time in years! The Toasted Graham Latte is a delicious blend of espresso, sweet cream and cinnamon graham. Try it while it’s still here!
2. Cinnamon Hot Chocolate. This season, try adding a flavorful twist to your hot chocolate! This one is super simple but so good! Just add a couple pinches of cinnamon to your favorite hot chocolate and you’re done! Fancy tip: To make it look more aesthetically pleasing, drop in a cinnamon stick. Easy Instagram-worthy hot chocolate is that easy.
3. Honey Spiced Milk. For a sweet twist on your bedtime glass of warm milk, try this tasty treat. Break out a pan and heat a cup of milk. Don’t let it boil. Melt in 3 tablespoons of honey, then add whatever spices you feel like. Suggested spices: cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and clove.
4. Wassail. Last but not least, here is a more demanding but absolutely delicious recipe for some amazingly tasty (and possibly potent) wassail. One gallon of apple cider, one cup of brown sugar, a few cinnamon sticks, some cloves, a sliced orange, a dash of orange juice and if you’re feeling risky, a half cup of brandy or rum. Bring all of this to a boil and then let it simmer. Drink it warm. Jayhawk tip: There is a cider mill in Louisburg. (That’s about 45 minutes away from good ol’ LFK.)
