    Iced Pumpkin Caramel Espresso Cream

    ByThe Wholesome Spoon

    I can feel fall approaching in my soul! The trees are turning red, there’s already leaves on the ground, and I’m here for it. It’s been hot and sunny, very summerish, but I’m out here thinking about pumpkin-flavored everything all day long. This Iced Pumpkin Caramel Espresso Cream was the perfect fall-flavored, mid-afternoon pick me up! It’s incredibly easy to make – just get some hot water, espresso powder, caramel, and pumpkin pie spice, then pour in the dairy. You can make it hot or iced! It’s spicy, creamy, and full of pumpkin-caramel goodness.

This Frozen Pineapple Creamsicle Colada was refreshing, boozy, and super tropical! It was so easy to make this, and you can either make a few or make a whole bunch! It’s the perfect drink to beat the heat, relax a little, and get your tan on. This really gave creamsicle vibes. I felt like I was somewhere on a beach while drinking this!

    Watermelon Cloud Slushie

    We’ve all been there. You buy a watermelon, cut it up, and now you have endless watermelon. My kids always want one and after a few days, they’re over it! This Watermelon Cloud Slushie was such a creative way to use up all that extra watermelon! It gives slushie meets smoothie vibes. It’s icy, yet creamy, and surprisingly really good for you! This was really easy to make, and the kids absolutely loved it.

    Dragon Fruit Rum Cooler

    ByThe Wholesome Spoon

    My husband and I love sippin’ on fruity cocktails while we hang on the deck or grill some steaks! It just seems like a whole vibe to us. This Dragon Fruit Rum Cooler was so unique and went down incredibly easy! The citrus punch in there complemented that sweet agave syrup and those subtle notes of dragon fruit and rum! It felt like the type of drink you’d be having poolside or on some tropical getaway. It was so easy to make it too!

    Cranberry Sangria

    ByThe Wholesome Spoon

    I love sangria and I LOVE cranberry! I wish cranberry was showcased more year-round because I seriously can’t get enough of it. Total fall/winter vibes! This Cranberry Sangria was so delicious. I’m constantly buying the stuff in the box – and this was like that, but way better! It was fruity, a little spicy, sweet, and strong. I made my husband a little go cup right before he went on the lawnmower and a little while later, he came back in to tell me how delicious and BOOZY it was! This was really simple to make, and it makes a couple servings. So, ditch that box of blah and just make it yourself at home. This is perfect for a Halloween, Thanksgiving, or Christmas gathering too.
