As for Alyssa Gangeri, pastry chef and managing partner at The Butter Milk Ranch in Nashville, Tennessee, pumpkin spice “reminds me of family gatherings, cozying up as the weather cools, and preparing for the holiday season. There’s also a psychological connection with indulgence and self-care as people enjoy this seasonal treat.”

Of course, when we at PopCrush see cinnamon, we think of Fireball, which if added to apple cider makes a great fall drink for the adults over 21 looking to have some fun and text their ex at the end of the night — just remember to delete the thread in the morning.

The National Weather Service reported that fall officially arrives in San Antonio at 7:43 a.m. next Sunday, and almost right on schedule, a cold front is expected to reach at least the Hill Country that same afternoon.

It's not too difficult to transition your favorite summertime drinks into the fall season. Add a pumpkin spice twist to your next margarita and taste the magic.
