From gender reveal parties to Girl Scout cookies, Americans are popular for having many obsessions. There is a plethora of stuff that Americans adore, and one of these is putting a lot of ice on their drinks. Talking about drinks, the 1990s saw the emergence of a popular beverage popularized by the coffee shop, Starbucks. It was the Pumpkin Spice Latte that soon became the talk of the town and America became obsessed with it. Nevertheless, there are many Americans who are not very fond of the spice popping up in every drink during the fall, including celebrities.

Recently, Ryan Reynolds put up a commercial for his gin brand and made his feelings very clear about the pumpkin-spiced drinks! However, he was not the first person to go on record expressing dislike for the cinnamon-spiked drink.

Reynolds’ Aviation Gin commercial on YouTube received hilarious responses from everyone. The actor not only took a jab at the crazy pumpkin spice trend but also stated that Aviation Gin will not be following suit. And six years before the commercial, American retail businesswoman Martha Stewart expressed how she could not stand the spice either. During her talk show appearance on Andy Cohen’s Watch What Happens Live, Cohen asked the 82-year-old if Pumpkin spice was “delicious or for basic b*tches only”.

Stewart, who recently made headlines for putting an iceberg in her cocktail during her cruise trip to Greenland, did not hold back from dissing the drink. The TV personality replied, saying, “The latter”, confirming her aversion to the flavored drink. However, her co-guest on the show, Seth MacFarlane, did not agree with the home and garden guru and said, “It’s not true”. Contrary to the $400 million businesswoman, there are many celebrities who love a little pumpkin spice.

Swift shares a very heartwarming bond with the Deadpool actor. However, they might not be on the same page for their beverage preferences. Out of all the four seasons, the ‘Cruel Summer’ singer has a profound affection for the fall. Apart from crafting beautiful lyrics, the star also spends the season going incognito at Starbucks. The star shared an Instagram reel in 2021, enacting an old Tumblr post and listing all her favorite things about the season.

The 33-year-old shared the post with a caption saying, “Basic autumn lovers RISE” and expressed her love for the popular drink. Swift said she does not care how people make fun of the PSL trend because it makes her happy. She also went on to say that putting too much cinnamon in her first batch of cookies was also one of her favorite things to do in the fall.
