What Will Trending This Autumn

It’s not just the weather and the wardrobe that changes with each season. The tastes and smells to look forward to are what makes the feelings of fall, winter, spring and summer so memorable. Trending ideas and movements also influence our seasonal sensibilities. This fall there are more trends to look forward to than the pumpkin spice lattes and apple ciders that are brought to mind!

The popular Argentinian tea, called mate, is making its way to North America. It’s an herbal blend that is not so bitter, like the trending matcha tea. It’s probably becoming quite popular because of its health benefits, but Argentinians have been drinking it for hundreds of years. With milk or sugar mate is even less bitter, and some enjoy it with hot milk and orange peels.

The growing popularity of veganism is also leading to new fall favorite products. You can expect a lot of cinnamon in the upcoming months. Ben & Jerry’s brings us cruelty-free, cinnamon bun ice cream pints (and gallons, don’t worry).

Another idea that product-makers are hanging onto is ditching plastic straws. You can expect a variety of new and improved stainless steel or paper straws becoming more available, keeping wildlife and the environment just a little bit safer.
