Introduction
There’s nothing quite like fall coffee flavors. We go from celebrating sunny days with caramel iced lattes to bundling up in our coziest layers… and ordering pumpkin spice as early as August! But can you blame us? Those irresistible seasonal flavors like pumpkin, apple, and caramel, make everything feel so much more indulgent.
Today I am featuring syrup and creamer brands like Monin, Torani, SkinnyMixes, Califia Farms, and So Delicious. These brands not only prioritize sustainability but also deliver incredible flavors (with sugar-free options too!). Why limit yourself to a single coffee shop menu? I can help you save money and bring new delicious tastes of autumn straight to your kitchen?
Whether you’re craving something sweet or want a little seasonal spice, today we change your home-brew coffee experience! Say goodbye $7 lattes, and hello everyday fall magic!
Why Experiment with New Flavors?
Have you ever tried Fudge flavored syrup in your coffee? What about Bourbon? What about Waffle flavor? If a coffee shop near you offered one of these flavors, would you give it a try?
Well, you can do this from home–and it’s fun!! Experimenting with new flavors helps you discover new flavor combinations. Plus, you can share this with your friends, your family, or maybe even a following online. (Hello, #Coffeetok!) By trying seasonal flavors, you can adjust the sweetness or creaminess to your taste. This is exactly why playing barista at home is so rewarding. In the end, you can create indulgent drinks to match any craving or mood.
Let’s save money, try some new syrups, and tag #thesocialcoffeebean on socials!
