Seasonal Boozing as Leaves Gracefully Turn

As soon as the final rotting jack o'lanterns of Halloween are stomped out by the feet of maniacal screaming children, all holiday fuss and confusion is focused like a laser beam on Christmas. Never mind Thanksgiving with all its abundant offerings of glorious gluttony, people much rather prefer overspending and peppermint bark. Don't get it twisted, I love many aspects of Christmas, but for the love of God, please allow us a November free of candy canes. In order to rekindle the spirit of fall and thanksgiving, here is a unique and simple twist on a classic drink.
Step 1: Combine vodka and kahlua in a glass filled with ice (you can probably see where this is headed).
Step 2: Skate down to your nearest 711 (here comes the twist) and grab a few pumpkin spice creamer packets. Pour a couple of them over the top of drink.
Step 3: Either stir and contents of the glass to fully incorporate them together, or (as I am known to do) sit back and watch the cream gradually swirl with the alcohols in the glass. You know have yourself the pumpkin spice white russian! Keep your minds out of the gutter and on Thanksgiving.
