What should we drink this dreadful time of year, when everything goes pumpkin spice? There are pumpkin spice lattes, for which Starbucks is to blame. At Dutch Bros. Coffee, you can get an iced caramel pumpkin brulee cold brew. At Gregorys Coffee, there is a Smashing Pumpkin (cold brew oat milk, vanilla, and pumpkin spice syrup). There is pumpkin spice vodka and pumpkin spice rum (Captain Morgan, you ought to be ashamed of yourself) and recipes galore for such enormities as pumpkin spice old fashioneds and, it pains me even to say it, pumpkin spice martinis.
