What Fall Drink You Should Try, Based On Your Zodiac Sign

by Brittany Bennett

Once summer slips away from us and we're greeted by autumn with crunchy leaf piles, the first thing that changes is our drink order. Before we even decide to swap our sandals out for faux shearling trimmed booties, we replace rose with red. With so many drinks tailored to the robust flavors of this sacred season, you might be wondering what fall drink you should try based on your zodiac sign. Beverages have the power to keep us cool under the sun's harsh rays and warm us up in the season's crisp air. And while you should try as many spiced glasses of fall's delights as possible before the first snow hits, keep reading to see what drink pairs well with your sun sign.

Say "see you later" to the frosted glasses of lemonade reserved for pool days and welcome mugs, the perfect drinking vessel for a day spent wrapped in a cable knit turtleneck sweater. With fall comes wafts of spice: Apple spice. Pumpkin spice. Chai spice. The combination of cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cardamom is a flavorful potion that stirs up magic in the cup.

Every astrological sign as their own unique traits and characteristics, just like your favorite fall beverages and those you might not know yet. Discover what you should have in hand all fall based on your astrological sign below!
