Autumn in a cup
By Kimberly Bojorquez
Hi everyone! As the weather begins to cool down, leaves are falling, and spooky festivities arise, it’s only fitting that I tasted a fall themed flavor. I tried ‘Pumpkin Pie’ due to it being one of my favorite fall desserts. The snow cone was orange and it had hints of pumpkin flavor, but I think I would have liked it more if the pumpkin flavor had been bolder. It made me want to sit down and watch “It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown” as it captured the autumn season.
Now, would I want it over a normal slice of pumpkin pie? No, BUT… I could definitely see myself reaching for it again. Overall, I rate it a 7.5 out of 10 and would recommend it to all my pumpkin lovers searching for autumn in a cup.
Pumpkin Spice Everything
By Yarektzy Navarro
For this month’s new flavors of Pelicans, the approaching fall season has brought warm flavors to fit the vibe. From candy apples to pumpkin flavors, the new menu flavors definitely have some of my favorite seasonal treats.
I got Pumpkin Spice Latte and it was so cute. It had a blob of whip cream on top of the vibrant orange snowball. I would think that it was going to be sooooo sweet but it was moderately sweet. If you know me I won’t lie on whether something is too sweet but it was actually pretty good to my surprise . You can taste the pumpkin very well and the hint of cinnamon. I KNOW ITS WEIRD BUT….. It tasted like how Hobby Lobby would taste like. How would I know what a store tastes like? I don’t know, I just sense it would taste like the nostalgic feeling of your mom shopping for fall decoration as you smell the strong pumpkin candles all through the store aroma. Or I could say it tasted like walking down New York City’s Park during the fall season as you see the crimson leaves falling down next to your partner’s pathway and yours. (I’ve never been to New York.) I just imagine). Anywho, overall I would recommend y’all trying it if you want to feel closer to the fall season. For me it’s a 9/10
