Flavors are often associated with a season, and there’s a reason for this.
Leading up to the fall months, coffee shops and stores across the country begin rolling out their pumpkin spice products. Following pumpkin spice are the peppermint mocha flavors associated with Christmastime.
The short time that pumpkin spice is available in cafés and grocery stores brings in huge profits. Starbucks alone sells 20 million pumpkin spice lattes each year. The tasty offering is typically sold starting at the end of August and through the fall months.
