Fall is in the air. The leaves are changing colors, it's not 90 degrees anymore, and pumpkin spice syrup is back at Starbucks. And now, you don't have to be a latte drinker to enjoy this autumnal treat. Starbucks announced 10 new ways to customize drinks this fall, and there are options for nearly everyone.
For The Iced Tea-Fiend
Sometimes, pumpkin spice is a drink best served cold. Starbucks recommends ordering a shaken black iced tea with coconut milk intead of water. Add to that pumpkin spice syrup (and cinnamon dolce syrup if you're really feeling it) and you've got pumpkin spice on the rocks.
For The Ultra-Caffeinated
Make it a double — and add some pumpkin spice. A double espresso plus two pumps of the gourd's nectar will make that dopio even more dope. Pour it over ice for some of the remaining hot days this month.
For The Maximalist
Deciding between caramel apple and pumpkin spice? Why not do both? Add pumpkin spice to a caramel apple spice latte and prepare for autumnal overload.
For The Alternative Coffee-Lover
It's not just "sugar and everything nice." It's "sugar and SPICE and everything nice." Spice up your life with a white chocolate chile mocha. No pumpkin spice to be found; this drink is for anyone who's only here for the S in the PSL.
For Those Who Choose Chai
Want a little pumpkin in that chai? Top that already spicy latte with pumpkin spice topping and cheers to fall.
For The Indulgent Ones
Uber-rich salted caramel plus pumpkin spice? Bring it on.
For Those From Down Under
Attached to the flat white? We get it. The drink is delicious, but what if you add mocha chile? Now that drink is anything but flat.
For Lovers Of The Classics
No order is more emlematic of Starbucks than that of the caramel macchiato. Substitute pumpkin spice syrup for the vanilla syrup and that macchiato will ROCK-iato.
For Frappy Hour
The Frappucino will never die. All through summer, fall, winter, and spring, the drink lives on in the hearts of every Starbucks-lover. There are TWO ways to add pumpkin spice to your frapp: salted caramel pumpkin spice and java chip pumpkin spice. How can you resist?
