The air is colder. Pumpkin spice becomes peppermint. The orange decorations turn red.

All of this can only mean one thing: The holiday season is approaching.

In addition to putting up the Christmas trees, lighting the menorah and playing in the snow, here are five Starbucks drinks you should indulge in to get festive this holiday season!

1. Gingerbread Latte

The gingerbread latte is a fan favorite. It has a sweet yet subtly spicy taste to it. With its mixture of espresso and steamed milk, it makes the perfect holiday drink.

2. Peppermint Mocha 

Peppermint mocha screams "Happy Holidays." It is the perfect mixture of espresso, chocolate and peppermint. Sipping on a peppermint mocha is like sipping on Christmas.

3. Toasted White Chocolate Mocha

If you love white chocolate, this drink is for you. The sweet taste of caramelized white chocolate mixes so well with espresso. Nothing is better than cozying up next to the fireplace and sipping on this yummy drink.

4. Eggnog Latte

This drink was made for all of the eggnog lovers. When drinking your eggnog latte, your taste buds are bathing in a pool of espresso, eggnog and a hint of ground nutmeg. This drink is the perfect holiday drink!

5. Snickerdoodle Hot Chocolate

If heaven was a drink, it would be this one. The snickerdoodle hot chocolate is my ultimate favorite drink from Starbucks. It is like drinking a giant snickerdoodle cookie. Your taste buds will thank you for this one!

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself?
