Is Churro the Pumpkin Spice of the Summer?

That cinnamon-laced fried dough goodness can be found in everything from ice cream to fries (really!).

Churros definitely qualify as a perfect summer snack: The fried dough and sweet-and-spicy cinnamon sugar coating feel like the perfect thing to enjoy while walking down a beachy boardwalk or watching fireworks.

And clearly, everyone's excited about that churro flavor right now, with all sorts of food products available that embrace that cinnamon spice. So even if you don't feel like making your own churros (or tracking down some near you), you can get a little of that cinnamon churro goodness right at home. Could churro replace pumpkin spice in our hearts? The jury's still out, but the traditional Spanish dessert could definitely give the PSL a run for the money.

Here's where you can find churro-flavored (and scented!) products if you're ready to spice up your summer.

Churro-Flavored Coffees

Sugar and cinnamon meld perfectly with coffee—so it's no wonder that a bunch of coffee roasters and companies have rolled out churro-flavored coffee products to enjoy.
