\"FallFall is right around the corner, and even though it doesn’t feel like anything but summer in California, I am so ready for the change of the seasons. Normally, right now I would be drinking cup after cup of Anniversary blend, but we won’t have that treasure until after Christmas. Instead I grabbed one of my other fall favorites, which is not sold in Starbucks stores. You can find Fall blend at Target, Wal-Mart or Amazon<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Fall blend is a blend of coffee from all three growing regions, and is a hearty blend with warm spice notes.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Fall blend combines coffee from Sumatra, Kenya and Peru. Each region bringing a different nuance to the cup. The warm spice of Sumatra, the crispness of Kenya and the nuttiness of Peru. This is a very versatile cup that can go with many different pairings. For this pairing, I really wanted to bring out the warm spice notes. When I was at Trader Joe’s a few days ago, they were just putting out all of their fall stuff. I saw the ghosted maple syrup (maple syrup with ghost peppers!!!!) and instantly knew I wanted to use this to make marshmallows and pair them with this coffee. Many people ask where I get these ideas, and I don’t have an answer. I will randomly see something and have an “a-ha” moment. The ghosted maple syrup was my a-ha moment for fall blend!<\/p>\n

Now, I spent many years of my life not living near a Trader Joe’s. In fact, when I was living in Michigan, I would routinely make the once a week visit to Trader Joe’s and Whole foods – which was 2 hours away! I am fortunate now to have a TJ’s very close by, not sure what I would do without it! That being said, you can only find this syrup at Trader Joe’s, and it is a seasonal item, which means it won’t be around very long. This is one I would suggest stocking up on if you can. If you don’t have a Trader Joe’s nearby, or you don’t like spicy food, you can always substitute regular maple syrup in this recipe. They’ll still be good, I promise \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
