Kofi Outlaw reports on Comicbook.com strong-worded views by Ryan Reynolds on Pumpkin Spice: “What the F Are We Doing People?”

Kofi points out: “Beyond his acting, Ryan Reynolds has made a name for himself as one of the most media-savvy modern-day moguls. In addition to Aviation Gin, Reynolds also has his Mint Mobile venture; the Canadian wealth management service Wealthsimple; tech ventures Nuvei and 1Password; production and marketing venture Maximum Effort, and sports ventures including stakes in F1 team Alpine and England’s Wrexham AFC soccer team (which is also the subject of his hit docu-series). Reynolds is also pursuing a bid for Canada’s Ottawa Senators NHL team, and their stadium, the Tire Centre. Reynolds’ wife, actress Blake Lively, is similarly branching out as a mogul, launching her own line of sparkling non-alcoholic cocktail mixers, Betty Buzz.”

Here’s the transcript, delivered as only Ryan Reynolds can:

“It’s nearly fall, which means the entire universe will once again be losing its mind for pumpkin spice. Well, not at Aviation. Not on my watch. Let’s make a Negroni.
First, take one part each of Bitter Red Liqueur and Sweet Vermouth. Pour over ice. Take a pumpkin spiced cinnamon stick and shove it right up your [BLEEP].
Then, we add one part Aviation American Gin. And stir.
Then while stirring, we’re going to take a moment to ponder, why it is, that once a year for two or three months, we lose our [BLEEP] mind over pumpkin spice. What the [BLEEP] are we doing, people? I’m not sending my kids off to school with a [BLEEP] cumin yogurt in their lun…
Next, we’re going to garnish with an orange peel, delicious orange fruit, and enjoy a real drink. [BLEEP] you pumpkin spice, it’s Negroni week.

It’s come to my attention that pumpkin spice has quite a lot of fans, and a powerful political lobby. So, on behalf of Aviation American Gin, its parent company Diageo, we’d like to wholesale apologize for our previous commercial.
Help me.”

My take: I love Negronis!
