I know. I know. The title is corny, but I had to seize the moment to be punny.

As we’re in the middle of fall, the infamous pumpkin spiced latte or PSL, as they like to call it, is on everyone’s mind. However, I never understood what all the hype was really about, so I caved in. I tried a pumpkin spice latte for the first time, and here are my thoughts.

For anyone who hasn’t tried this drink before, you can get it hot or cold. Well, you can at Dunkin’ Donuts, and that’s exactly where I went. I opted for the cold version since it was pretty warm outside the day I went.

And let me just say, I was pleasantly surprised.

I’m not sure what I was expecting, but the drink definitely exceeded anything I could’ve ever imagined. It’s all the spices you love from fall wrapped up in a drink, such as cinnamon, nutmeg and allspice. I’ll definitely order this again. So, if you’ve never really given it the time of day, give it a try.

I was more than pleased.
