Starbucks is serving up all the at-home fall flavors you need.

Sure, there’s a lot to love about fall, ranging from a new batch of shows to binge watch to the return of sweater weather. But, from a totally exhausted mom standpoint, it’s back-to-school season, which means weaning the kids (and yourself) off that breezy summer break flow and back into the swing of it all. (Read: Chasing them around the house with their shoes for 15 minutes while begging them to get in the car.) While me-time may feel like a long-ago concept in the midst of all this mayhem, you can still experience a few daily moments of bliss, possibly even before drop-off. One of the best ways is to savor the cozy comfort of Starbucks® Fall At Home coffees, available in bags of roast & ground and K-Cup® Pods, are making their annual (yet fleeting) return for the season. Along with the rich, dreamy tastes of seasonal blends, here are a few ways to experience the flavors of fall. Now, take a breath, go forth and enjoy.

Pumpkin Spice

One sip of warm and balanced Starbucks® Pumpkin Spice Flavored Coffee will make you feel like you’ve escaped the everyday and retreated to your own personal pumpkin patch. Notes of pumpkin, cinnamon, and nutmeg come together in a rich blend that reminds you why fall delivers all the comfy feels. Up the ante by lighting a pumpkin spice candle while you sip. Those seasonal vibes deserve to be savored.

Maple Pecan

Maple and pecan are quintessential flavors and scents of fall. Together, they’re magic. You can brew up a pot of Starbucks® Maple Pecan Flavored Coffee, which captures toasty pecan notes mingled with sweet maple in a roast of scrumptious satisfaction. Enjoy your cup in a cozy chair, on the porch curled in a soft blanket, or locked away in your closet (whatever works).

Fall Blend

Starbucks® Fall Blend is a hearty, harvest-y roast with exactly the kind of heavenly taste that instantly warms you from head to toe. Bring your mug outside for a little nature walk among the foliage to feel the crisp temps and the leaves crunching underfoot. And take a few deep breaths to let all that earthy pine, wood and freshly brewed coffee aroma fill you up. Just being outside in nature can give you an instant lift—and make you forget about everything else for a few minutes.

Grab Starbucks® Fall At Home coffees in bags of roast & ground or K-Cup® Pods at your nearest grocery store before they’re gone baby gone, and you’re sad baby sad.
