Peppermint vs. Pumpkin Spice

A vicious battle between Starbucks holiday special drinks

Finn Drageset, Arts & Entertainment|December 17, 2021

For years now the pumpkin spice latte has had it’s time in the spotlight as the stereotypical basic white girl drink that everyone secretly enjoys. But today I am here to argue that this is wrong.

The pumpkin spice latte offers a flavor equal to someone boiling pumpkin meat in cow milk for an unreasonably long time before dumping in enough sugar to bury this foul concoction. It is a subpar drink that can only be enjoyed by flavorless monsters.

Alas I am not only here to bash this abomination, I am here to also offer a solution. The mocha peppermint latte from Starbucks. This pristine, beautiful, bombastic drink with a delicate flavor aimed at pleasing your taste buds in a way you’ve never tasted before.

I one hundred percent endorse this drink with my whole heart, as well as slandering the pumpkin spice latte from the bottom of my heart.
