It may be after Halloween, but this is the single most popular flavoured coffee served in coffee giant, Starbucks menu, selling over 200 million Pumpkin Spice lattes since 2003.
You can’t exactly argue with that popularity! Try adding a little bit of Pumpkin to your menu and reap the rewards!
All you need is a couple of dashes of our Sweetbird Pumpkin Spice syrup to start making the iconic Autumn/Winter drink.
Just don’t listen to anyone telling you “it’s not the time of year for pumpkin spice”!
Winter Spice
If some would consider Pumpkin Spice as a more Autumn appropriate addition to your hot drink ingredient arsenal, then Winter Spice will add a warming edge for the coldest season.
Featuring notes of ginger and cinnamon, Winter spice is very reminiscent of Christmas cake and mulled wine, providing a fresh way to add some Winter warming to your hot drink menu.
Add Sweetbird Winter Spice syrup to your drink-making ingredients list and get inventive!
