Fall is in the air. The leaves are… not changing color. The temperature is… also staying the same. Actually, nothing’s changing. Even though it doesn’t feel like autumn in the Old Pueblo, we’re still declaring it “Pumpkin Spice Season.” That’s right, bring us every orange-colored, nutmeg-dusted, pumpkin-spiced drink and treat to satisfy our basic gourd-shaped hearts.
Consider this your local guide to the essential pumpkin spice products you need to pick up this season.
We’ll be updating this as drinks and treats become available.
Introducing The Great Pumpkin Shake from Little Love Burger. It’s their shake of the month so you’d better hurry on down!

Your second option is the Sugar and Smoke, an espresso con panna for autumnal indulgence, featuring a double shot of espresso, vegan maple whipped cream, cinnamon, and smoked sea salt.
Both are only available hot.
