Starbucks is not within reasonable reach at UIC. The closest locations are down Halsted or Taylor Street. Our alternatives are Dunkin Donuts and Argo Tea at Student Center East. If you are looking for something warm and the lines are long at Dunkin Donuts, give Argo Tea a try. Here are two of their signature drinks you should consider trying out for the cold Fall season.
1. Pumpkin Chai
Nothing screams Fall like pumpkin-flavored anything. Their chai tea is sweet and spicy, and with the touch of pumpkin, you taste the Fall season. This drink is seasonal so don’t miss out!
2. Chocolate Mint
Â
Hot chocolate is a cold weather staple. You curl up with a good book or movie and hot chocolate in your free time and instantly feel relaxed. Chocolate Mint from Argo Tea tastes just like hot chocolate with a hint of mint. This drink, however, is made with creamy black tea with cool mint and rich dark chocolate. Black tea is high in antioxidants and caffeine so you will feel less guilty and more energized. Â You are detoxing and getting your caffeine fix at the same time.
3. Pumpkin muffin
To accompany your drink, order a pumpkin muffin to supplement your Fall meal.Â
