A new trend is emerging as summer fades: pumpkin spice flavors are making their way into various products. 7-Eleven has jumped on this bandwagon by introducing a limited-edition pumpkin spice Slurpee. This drink combines the classic Slurpee with the popular flavors of pumpkin and cinnamon spice, creating a unique summer treat that hints at the upcoming fall season.
• The pumpkin spice Slurpee was launched on August 1st at only five select locations in the U.S.
• Locations include two in Los Angeles, one in New York City, one in Dallas, and one in Enon, Ohio.
• The drink is described as refreshing and ice-cold, perfect for those who love pumpkin spice but may not be coffee drinkers.
• The introduction is considered a "fun experiment," with hopes for a wider release if it proves popular.
This trend reflects a larger cultural shift where seasonal flavors are becoming more prevalent in food and beverages. As brands race to capture consumer interest, the pumpkin spice phenomenon continues to grow, signaling the end of summer and the anticipation of fall festivities.
