As the temperature starts to cool and the sweaters come out, the craving for a warm, tasty, fall drink exacerbates. Lucky for us, there are plenty of seasonal drink options on the Connecticut College campus and in the surrounding New London area. Here are a couple of our favorites:
If you find yourself off campus and in downtown New London, one of the best coffee and lunch places nearby is the Washington Street Coffee House. This semester, my friends and I have ordered their Dirty Iced Chai Latte with Pumpkin, and I highly recommend you order one to get in the fall spirit!

Everyone wishes they could put fall in a cup and carry it around as an accessory to their autumnal aesthetic. Lucky for you, I have found this delicacy. Coffee Closet offers the most decadent drink that is reminiscent of foliage and fall: the Bees Knees. A combination of cinnamon and honey, this drink is an elevation and a sensation. While served both hot and cold, I suggest drinking it warm to combat the new staggering temperatures. I hope you all have a lovely fall (both the season and in the cup)!
