Yes, there should be actual pumpkin in a homemade pumpkin spice latte.

A little real pumpkin adds body, color and that unmistakable pumpkin-pie character. Combine it with espresso, milk, brown sugar, vanilla and warm spices, and suddenly your kitchen is producing something worth getting out of bed for.

The complete hot and iced recipes are waiting on Shipnut.

Yes, bacon-flavored coffee exists.

Yes, I love it.

And no, flavored coffee does not have to taste like somebody liquefied a candle and poured it into a mug.

The trick is balance. One main flavor. One supporting flavor. Let the coffee stay involved.

The new Shipnut flavored-coffee guide breaks it down without turning your kitchen into a coffee laboratory.

Maple. Bacon. Coffee.

Yes, that’s a real thing — and somehow it works.

The Maple Bacon Latte is now in the Shipnut Coffee Finder, built with Aroma Ridge Bacon Flavored Coffee, a little maple syrup, vanilla, frothed milk, and just enough sweetness to keep the coffee from getting buried.

And no, we’re not tossing bacon chunks into the mug. We still have standards.

If you like coffee that’s a little different without becoming a dessert disguised as breakfast, this one is worth trying.

Bacon coffee sounds like something somebody invented after being awake way too long.

But this one actually makes sense.

The Maple Bacon Latte starts with bacon-flavored coffee, then adds steamed milk, a little maple syrup and vanilla. The trick is keeping the maple under control so the coffee still tastes like coffee instead of a pancake drowning incident.

Serve the bacon on the side. Keep the grease out of the mug. Civilization survives another day.

Meet the Undead Gentleman, a bold Halloween rum cocktail with aged rum, overproof rum, grapefruit, lime, falernum, cinnamon syrup, bitters, and an absinthe rinse.

It’s citrusy, spiced, strong, and just strange enough to earn a spot on the Halloween drink table.

Recipe:

Absinthe blanc, for rinsing the glass
1 1/2 oz blended aged rum
1 oz black blended overproof rum
1/2 oz fresh grapefruit juice
1/2 oz fresh lime juice
1/2 oz falernum
1/2 oz cinnamon syrup
1 dash Angostura bitters

How to make it:
Rinse a chilled coupe with absinthe. Shake the remaining ingredients with ice until well chilled. Double-strain into the prepared coupe and garnish with intertwined lime and grapefruit twists.

Apparently “coffee weather” is now a season.

Cold morning? Coffee weather.
Rainy afternoon? Coffee weather.
Beautiful fall day? Still coffee weather.
Tuesday? You get the idea.

I put this one together for the people who believe there is basically no bad time for coffee.

The Coffee Weather hoodie has that old-school collegiate look without going full cheesy coffee merch, and it works pretty darn well once the weather finally cools off.

If you’re one of those people who plans the day around the next cup, this one might have your name on it.

I’ll put the link in the first comment.

Wine gets tasting nights. Bourbon gets flights. So why is coffee usually just sitting there minding its own business?

Here’s a ridiculously easy get-together idea: grab 4–6 flavored coffees, hide the flavor names, give everybody tiny cups and a scorecard, then see who can actually figure out what they’re drinking.

Taste them black. Make your guesses. Release the creamers for round two. Eat some cheesecake. Crown a Coffee Champion.

Nobody needs to know anything about coffee. If your tasting note is “pancakes at a truck stop,” it counts.

I put the whole setup together — coffee picks, scoring, snacks, blind-tasting game and how to turn it into an easy coffee-and-dessert night.

Flavored coffee is not the problem.

The problem is when vanilla, caramel, creamer, cold foam and whipped cream all show up to the same party and nobody knows when to leave.

We put together a simple guide to making flavored coffee that still tastes like coffee—plus easy combinations that are hard to screw up.

And yes, bacon coffee made the cut.

If your homemade pumpkin spice latte tastes like somebody brewed coffee inside a fall-scented candle store, the spice may have gotten a little too ambitious.

A good PSL should still taste like coffee. The trick is balancing the espresso, real pumpkin, sweetness, and spices so none of them hijack the mug.

Our new guide breaks down how to make it properly—without creating hot pumpkin potpourri.

“I can’t drink tequila.”

Usually followed by a story involving shots, salt, questionable judgment and a morning nobody wants to discuss.

A Margarita made with a good 100% agave blanco, fresh lime and properly balanced ingredients is a very different experience from whatever happened at 11:37 p.m. twenty years ago.

You may not hate tequila. You may just hate terrible decisions involving tequila.
