Pumpkin Spice Latte is back at Starbucks this week: Here’s when PSL arrives

Sure, it’s a million degrees outside but that doesn’t mean you can’t dream of fall. And nothing says fall more than the return of Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Latte.

Starbucks confirmed its fall drinks – including the iconic PSL – and fall food will arrive in stores Aug. 24.

Starbucks fall menu also features two new seasonal beverages, Iced Apple Crisp Oatmilk Shaken Espresso and Iced Pumpkin Cream Chai Tea Latte, as well as the new Baked Apple Croissant. Back on the menu will be the  Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew, Apple Crisp Oatmilk Macchiato, Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffin, and Owl Cake Pop. The fall food and beverages are available for a limited time, while supplies last.

The star of the show, of course, is the Pumpkin Spice Latte. PSL first made its debut 20 years ago and combines Starbucks Signature Espresso and steamed milk with the flavor combination of real pumpkin, cinnamon, nutmeg and clove. Topped with whipped cream and pumpkin pie spices, the PSL is available hot, iced or blended.

PSL – which gets its nickname from the three-letter beverage code originally written on cups by baristas – was first introduced in 100 Starbucks stores in Washington, D.C. and Vancouver, Canada. In the last 20 years, hundreds of millions of Pumpkin Spice Lattes have been served and, this year for the first time, Starbucks Reserve stores in the U.S. will add PSL beverages to its seasonal menus.
