Lauren Graham, known for her role in "Gilmore Girls," recently revealed her preferred fall coffee order to Parade magazine: a chocolate mint drink rather than the popular pumpkin spice latte. Despite the early release of seasonal drinks by major chains like Starbucks and Dunkin', which started offering pumpkin spice lattes in August due to consumer trend changes known as "season creep," Graham opts for sweeter, non-pumpkin options like peppermint mocha year-round.

Story summary
Lauren Graham, known for her role as Lorelai Gilmore in the TV series "Gilmore Girls," revealed her favorite fall coffee order to Parade magazine in early September. Despite the show's strong association with autumn in New England, Graham prefers sweeter seasonal drinks over pumpkin spice varieties. She opts for a chocolate mint or peppermint mocha. Starbucks introduced its peppermint mocha as a holiday menu item on November 6, 2025, reflecting an emerging trend of "season creep" where consumers are buying seasonal products earlier than in previous years. This year, both Starbucks and Dunkin’ launched their seasonal offerings early to capitalize on this trend.
