Straight-up pumpkin spice? So delish, BUT if you’re ready for a more adventurous drink experience this fall, look no further than these seasonal lattes, cocktail concoctions, and more.

Cameo Cakery & Cafe

Okay but first things first, when it is pumpkin you’re going for, Cameo Cakery & Cafe has you more than covered. The cozy Westhampton bakery dropped three pumpkin drinks so far this season, including the Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew and Pumpkin Chai Latte, but the one that’s really lit a fire under our plans to stop by is the Pumpkin Spice Latte with Toasted Marshmallow Rim.

Cirrus Vodka

If you want a little boo-ze with your bevs, head to Cirrus. The vodka tasting room now has a gorg patio at its new Scott’s Addition location, which’ll allow for the perfect spot for you to sit in the season’s crispy (but comfy) temps and sip on a Golden Orchard (textured, crisp, autumnal), Pear Hugo Spritz (light, floral, effervescent), or Maple Pecan Promenade (nutty, creamy, rich).

Location: 1320 Summit Ave Suite F (Scott’s Addition)

Crescent Simples

Now, we can’t talk about Cirrus Vodka without talking about the delish simple syrups the spot often uses in its mixed drinks. Crescent Simples offers 11 in-season bangers (S/O to one of our personal faves, Lime Jalapeño), but they also just dropped their fall flavors you can enjoy at your tailgates, around the campfire, or wherever else — Cranberry Ginger and Apple Spice. Throw a splash of either in your cocktails, mocktails, soda water, tea, or coffee, or let the included recipe cards serve as your drink-making inspo all fall long.

Location: Varies

Coco + Hazel

Coco + Hazel is wetting our whistles with the Autumn Prelude, and if it’s any indication of what’s to come this fall, our thirst will be quenched. Peep the White Pumpkin (rum and rum-chata with almond milk, pumpkin spice, and a cinnamon finish), Golden Harvest (bourbon and apple cider, sweetened with honey and lemon, topped with an apple chip), September Heatwave (whiskey and peach purée with bright lemon and a spicy red pepper kick), and Sage & Fig (rum and orange liqueur, house sage syrup, lemon, and a fizzy fig garnish).

Early Bird Biscuit Co. & Bakery

The early bird catches the worm and the fall vibes in this case. This Fan-favorite spot is whipping up a Cinnamon Honey Latte, Cardamom Latte, Cherry Almond Chai Latte, and Caramel Apple Cider Latte for its fall coffee specials. Pair any of those with something like a slice of caramel apple bundt cake, and you’re looking at a scrumptious start to your morning.

Riverbend Roastery

Snag a cup o’ Riverbend, and channel your inner Lorelai Gilmore while you crunch through leaves on Church Hill’s brick sidewalks (side-stepping the tree roots, ofc). This top coffee spot has a Pumpkin Spice Latte, Apple Spice Chai Latte, Salty Pumpkin Shaken Espresso, Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup Latte, and Caramel Apple Latte. TBH, go ahead and let the barista think you ordered three. “Coffee, coffee, coffee!”
