4 Guilt-Free Fall Inspired Drinks
Summers are spent with an iced coffee in hand. Yet when fall rolls around and the temperatures begin to dip, I always find myself hankering for a soothing mug of something that will pair well with a thick sweater and a good book.
Fall is the café industry's highest time of the year in terms of marketing, and as we all know, the minute a leaf hits the ground in early September, Starbucks launches their fall drink line. Usually inclusive of a PSL, something containing the word cinnamon in it, and some form of a chai tea latte. Yes, these drinks are soothing and delicious, but are loaded with additives galore and a great deal of sugar. This is where these four guilt-free fall inspired drinks come into play, satisfying both your desire for something cozy, and a drink a bit on the healthier side.
Enjoy while curled up watching your favorite episode of Gilmore Girls, the most recent John Green novel, or with your morning toast.
