Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Lattes Are Back!
Updated: Aug. 24, 2020
Now's the time to get the very first sip of fall.
Starbucks launched its famous Pumpkin Spice Latte 17 years ago, and it’s become the most popular seasonal beverage in Starbucks history. (Don’t miss our copycat PSL recipe.) We’re pleased to announce that this sweet-and-frothy fall drink is officially back in stores. Yes, you heard that right! Time to grab your travel mug (or order this giggle-worthy thermos) and head to Starbucks ASAP.
Psst! Here’s what most people don’t know about Venti lattes at Starbucks.
News from Starbucks
While nothing is confirmed quite yet, this is about as close to a “yes” as we’re gonna get before the PSL is officially rolled out nationwide. The Starbucks Instagram recently posted a rather cryptic image—what we can only assume is a PSL with a phone number written on it. Interesting…
What happens when you call the number? The voice of autumn answers and offers you the delights of the season, like a tranquil hayride, a calming trek through the leaves or simply a cozy cup of pumpkin spice beside the fire. Rumor has it across the web that the PSL will be making its highly anticipated entrance on August 25 in the US and Canada.
Since Starbucks launched several new pumpkin spice products last season, we’re excited to see what other surprises they may have in store for this year’s early fall celebration.
We’ll likely be seeing this all-new pumpkin spice drink back in stores this year.
Can’t make it to the store?
Don’t worry—Your fix is only a car ride away. Last year, grocery stores offered a bottled Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Latte, flavored ground coffee, PSL K-Cups and even VIA Instant Lattes for those pumpkin lovers on-the-go.
You can also get that sticky sweet syrup in just about any beverage you buy from Starbucks. Other popular variations include the Pumpkin Spice Chai Tea Latte, the Pumpkin Spice Frappuccino and, if you’re looking for a kick of caffeine, ask for a little of the good stuff in your Americano for a small upcharge.
Get into Starbucks on August 25 to claim your very first sip of the season!
