5 Limited-Time Starbucks Drinks You Must Try Today
Hexjam

It's early November, and you know what this means - it's both fall and winter right now at Starbucks! Both of their menus are available, meaning that you can mix and match and choose whatever you want; here are five of my favorites that you should absolutely try!

1. Pumpkin Chai Latte with Skim Milk

This is my absolute favorite drink - it is creamy and spicy with a kick of cinnamon and a hint of pumpkin. However, the sweetness can be overpowering so cut it with skim milk instead of whole for the most amount of flavor.

2. Peppermint Mocha Iced Coffee

This is a MUCH cheaper alternative to an iced latte, you get more caffeine and it tastes better because the coffee is less bitter than espresso. Iced coffee + 4 pumps mocha + 4 pumps peppermint + 2% milk = perfect winter iced coffee.

3. Gingerbread Eggnog Latte

This one is a bit heavy, but, by using thick and creamy eggnog instead of milk, the taste of the gingerbread is minimized and instead serves as a sweetener. This is certainly a drink for rainy or colder days when you're snuggled up under a blanket.

4. Salted Caramel Hot Chocolate

Natural combination, right? Everything about this is amazing, and it melts in your mouth. I recommend extra salt, if they have it, for the flavor kick.

5. Toasted Caramel White Chocolate Mocha Frappuccino

Starbucks just released this toasted white chocolate latte and frappuccino, but get this - add caramel. It will mix well with the toasted cranberries on top and the taste will add some new flavor to an otherwise good - but fairly basic - drink.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.
