Tis the season for flavored caffeinated beverages.
Pumpkin spice lattes (or as my friend abbreviates them, PSLs) were all the rage in October. Now that Christmas season is here (I can say that without being accused of being non-PC, seeing as Hanukkah is officially over), peppermint spice is now trending.
I had the cutest interaction with an elderly lady a few weeks ago at Starbucks concerning the spiciness of said drinks.
"Excuse me, miss. How spicy do you think the pumpkin spice drink is?"
--Oh, it's not spicy at all. At least not in the way a chili pepper is. It just means flavorful.
"But, how spicy? I really can't handle much spice."
--It's spicy in the way that cinnamon is a spice. Not hot and spicy.
"Hmm...well, OK."
She ordered a chai tea.
