Its Pumpkin Spice Latte Season Again
Starbucks long awaited and highly hyped 2025 fall drink menu returned on August 26th. Of course, the Pumpkin Spice Latte has returned back on the menu. It’s basically the drink of fall. It’s sweet, pumpkiny, and spiced just right. You can get it hot, iced, or blended, which makes it very versatile whether it’s chilly or blazing hot outside.
Also back are the Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew and the Iced Pumpkin Cream Chai. Both are huge fan favorites. The cold brew is strong but has the sweet pumpkin cream on top, and the chai is a spicy sweet combination. Another great drink on the menu is the Pecan Crunch Oatmilk Latte, which tastes like a pecan pie in a cup. Plus, its made with oatmilk, so it’s a perfect pick for anyone who is dairy-free.
Along with the fan favorite drinks from last season, is the brand-new Pecan Oatmilk Cortado. It’s smaller than a latte but way stronger, with three espresso shots, oatmilk, and a nutty pecan flavor. People are loving it because it’s both cozy and gives you the caffeine kick. Perfect to start the day or to power through late-night study sessions.
Overall, Starbucks nailed it this year. The fall menu brought back all the classics everyone has looked forward all year to, while introducing a new fresh drink. If you haven’t tried the new drinks yet, you better do so before its too late. The fall drink menu usually sticks around until the beginning of November when Starbucks changes the fall menu for the holiday one. So grab the famous Pumpkin Spiced Latte or new cortado while you still can.
