One of the most iconic flavors of the fall has been utilized for the relaunch of a popular seasonal liqueur: Pumpkin Spice Baileys.
Like the alcohol brand's various other renditions of Irish cream, the pumpkin spice iteration can be added to a wide range of beverages, both hot and cold. As consumers might expect, the liqueur boasts flavor notes of brown sugar, maple, vanilla, coffee, and warm spices. Due to this, it's perfect for adding to a cup of coffee or a latte.
In order to peak consumer interest in the relaunch, Diageo, the beverage company that owns Baileys, will only be offering the pumpkin spice iteration up until November -- making it an exclusive fall staple for all the Irish cream enthusiasts out there.
