Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Lattes Are Back!

Starbucks launched its famous Pumpkin Spice Latte 16 years ago, and it’s become the most popular seasonal beverage in Starbucks history. (Don’t miss our copycat 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

This year, @Starbucks News made a pretty cryptic announcement on Twitter revealing that the Pumpkin Spice Latte would be in stores August 27, and the day has finally come. The release kicks off the fall season one day earlier than last year, though some fans argued that with 90-degree weather outside they aren’t quite ready for the hot drink. Luckily, Starbucks confirmed that you can always order the PSL on ice.

The NEW first day of fall is… today! It's officially PSL season! 🍂 #PumpkinSpiceLatte pic.twitter.com/usLI9kywW6

Don’t forget—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.

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.

Starbucks just released this all-new pumpkin spice drink—will you try it?

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.

There’s little doubt these seasonal treats will be making their way back into stores, but you can always curb that autumnal craving with Pillsbury’s Pumpkin Spice Cinnamon Rolls and crunchy pumpkin-inspired Kit Kats.
