🍃 August feels different—and so should your coffee.
There’s something about late August in the U.S.—the air shifts, routines change, and iced coffee slowly gives way to warm mugs and slower sips. But you might not be quite ready for cinnamon-sprinkled, pumpkin-everything yet.
If that’s you, here are three transition coffee flavors from Day to Day Coffee that gently guide you from summer mornings to fall focus—without skipping straight to October.
1. Hazelnut Crème
Nutty, smooth, and slightly sweet—hazelnut hits that cozy note without being heavy. It’s perfect for mid-70s mornings and early return-to-office routines.
Why it works:
-
Light enough for summer
-
Warm enough for fall
-
Great black or with milk
Tip: Add a sprinkle of cinnamon for a light fall twist.
2. Cinnamon Cookie
Sweet, spiced, and comfort-packed, Cinnamon Cookie feels festive without going full pumpkin spice. It’s the perfect middle ground for late August and September.
Why it works:
- Brings cozy flavor without being overpowering.
- Great iced or hot depending on the day.
- Naturally pairs with milk or creamer.
3. Colombian Supreme
Smooth and balanced, our Colombian Supreme Roast carries a touch of natural richness that feels right in-between seasons.
Why it works:
-
Naturally rounded flavor without added sugar.
-
Works hot, iced, or blended with seasonal creamers.
- Keeps your taste buds interested as the weather changes.
