(SPOT.ph) Several telltale signs signify the holiday season. Aside from the obvious Jose Mari Chan songs on loop, there's also the comeback of seasonal drinks from certain coffee shops—particularly the minty-chocolate and caramel-nutty kind. If you’re looking for cheaper alternatives to its comforting taste, PICKUP COFFEE introduces its lineup of Christmas drinks which includes a Peppermint Dark Mocha and Toffee Nut Latte.

For a flavor combination that's widely known to be controversial, it's as if people with opposing stances on the minty-chocolate drink have forgotten all about it during the holidays. Maybe it's due to a Christmas spell but PICKUP COFFEE's Peppermint Dark Mocha is a pretty solid mint chocolate drink that even skeptics might not be too repulsed by. This version doesn't have an overpowering minty taste and you can still taste the coffee in it—albeit milky, but if you want a stronger coffee taste, an additional coffee shot can be mixed in for an extra cost.
The Toffee Nut Latte has a strong caramel, buttery taste that comes from the syrup or flavoring added to the espresso and milk. It's a simple, straightforward coffee concoction that's easy to like if you prefer your joe on the sweet and milky spectrum.
While the other two may sound all too familiar, there is an exception. Last year's Buko Pandan Latte is now replaced with the Sea Salt Chocolate Marshmallow. As the sole non-coffee drink in the lineup, this drink has the complimenting flavors of sweet and salty which comes from the chocolate and creamy milk concoction that's topped with a salty mousse and bits of marshmallows.
As with most PICKUP COFFEE drinks, their Christmas lineup is affordable enough that you can buy a cup for less than a hundred bucks. The price for these drinks starts at P80 for a regular size which is half the price compared to other coffee shops. Better try 'em now while it's still on the menu!
