Thanksgiving Desserts and Beverage Ideas They’ll Love

 

I know that many of us are in Christmas mode already, but let’s not forget the best food holiday in which we celebrate family and give thanks for our many blessings in life, Thanksgiving. 

Here are some wonderful beverage and dessert ideas to serve your guests this Thanksgiving that I think they’ll enjoy.

Dessert Suggestions

Bake Me A Wish Pies and Cakes

I’m a bit biased here because Bake Me A Wish has some of the most delicious cakes and pies I’ve ever had.  They are delivered directly to your door, fresh and ready to serve.  I’d like to recommend the pumpkin pie and Caramel Apple Cake and Autumn Harvest Cake as serving suggestions, but there are so many more desserts to choose from in their Thanksgiving line.

Gigi’s Cupcakes 

How cute are these! As a self proclaimed cupcake-ago log, I highly recommend these adorable cupcakes from Gigi’s.

It's the season to be thankful, and Gigi's Cupcakes is celebrating by launching their Thanksgiving-themed Gobble Box on November 15 through November 24. The Gobble Box will include pumpkin and turkey-themed cupcakes. Each mini is filled and decorated the same as full-size cupcakes, except all will be pedestal swirls with a frosting weight of approximately 1oz. 

Orders can be placed for your favorite cupcakes at www.gigiscupcakesusa.com.

Stash Tea Limited Edition Fall Flavors

Stash Tea’s Limited-Edition Fall Flavors Are Back 

It’s time to brew up Stash’s 4 tas-tea seasonal flavors and accompanying recipes steeped with Autumn’s favorite traditions

 

 

Just in time for the Fall season, Stash Tea’s Limited Edition Fall Flavors are back. Stash has captured Autumn’s favorite flavors with these four seasonal releases: Maple Apple Cider, Cinnamon Vanilla, Decaf Pumpkin Spice, and Cranberry Pomegranate.

Maple Apple Cider Herbal Tea - We made our Maple Apple Cider tea more apple-y, more cider-y, and more maple-y than ever before! These tea bags are packed with cinnamon along with the natural flavors of tart fresh apple, sweetened with a hint of maple syrup flavor. These Fall flavors combine with smooth rooibos to create a cheerful and warming tea that transports you back to the moment you stepped off the chilly hayride at a pumpkin patch and had a warm apple cider.

Cinnamon Vanilla Herbal Tea - Stash pairs cinnamon tea with vanilla and a tasty twist of an earthy, light blend of rooibos and chamomile flowers as the base. While spicy, warm cinnamon and sweet vanilla are the main players in this herbal tea, all the ingredients come together to give you something that tastes just like Fall.

Pumpkin Spice Decaf Black Tea - You’ll notice forward notes of bold black tea and a smooth aftertaste of pumpkin. Hints of cinnamon and spices will engage your senses as you sip. This blend is the perfect accompaniment to a slice of pumpkin pie or pumpkin bread. The possibili-teas are endless; you could even try combining it in your favorite pumpkin bread recipe.

Cranberry Pomegranate Herbal Tea - As you brew up this tea, the delightful cranberry and pomegranate aromas dance in your cup. Stash blended these flavors on a rooibos base to keep the tea caffeine-free and added some hibiscus, for a slight tart finish. From brewing to sipping, this cranberry pomegranate tea will make your spirits bright and ready for the colorful Autumn season.

To help fully capture the unique and delicious flavors of Fall, Stash has brewed up some quick and easy Fall Flavor tea-infused recipes:

Pumpkin Spice Cold Foam Tea Latte

Pumpkin Spice Cold Foam is the fluffy, frothy, and fall-y addition to any tea that could use a pump-up. And it’s an amazing way to mix it up with our beloved pumpkin tea! Cold foam is cool, frothed milk that sits on top of the beverage before slowly making its way down the cup. Top your favorite iced or hot teas with spiced, creamy cold foam instead of adding creamer or milk. Store leftover cold foam in your fridge to top your next treats!
