For PSL enthusiasts, Starbucks has unveiled its upcoming 2024 fall menu, and the anticipated selections have coffee aficionados buzzing in their Ugg boots. Food critic Markie Devo has reported that a significant portion of this seasonal offering is slated for release on August 22. When approached for a statement, Starbucks remarked, “Thank you for reaching out. We’re thrilled to embrace the most wonderfall season, but we’re not quite ready to leaf behind summer just yet.”
The menu is set to feature the fan-favorite Pumpkin Spice Latte (available in hot, iced, and frappuccino forms), so prepare your autumn scarves and bid farewell to the lavender Starbucks trend. Also returning are cherished classics such as the Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew and the Iced Pumpkin Cream Chai.
A fresh item joining the fall lineup is the Iced Apple Crisp Cream Chai. Other returning fruity drinks include the Apple Crisp Macchiato and the Iced Apple Crisp Shaken Espresso, both made with oat milk unless noted otherwise. This means even those avoiding dairy can savor a seasonal drink.
In addition to beverages, there are whispers of delicious autumn treats making their way into Starbucks’ bakery cases. It’s reported that the much-loved Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffins and Baked Apple Croissants will return. However, the highlight of the menu may be the new Raccoon Cake Pop. Adorned to resemble an adorable little raccoon, details about the cake’s flavor remain under wraps.
Get ready for a scrumptious new latte topped with velvety cold foam!
Markie Devo also mentions that Starbucks plans to enhance its fall menu in September, with a rumored debut on September 19, just in time for the seasonal shift and the onset of Halloween celebrations.
This rollout is expected to introduce the Iced Pecan Crunch Latte, prepared with oat milk. While it’s unclear if this item is vegan, Starbucks offers many plant-based choices. This latte will be served with the new Salted Pecan Cream Cold Foam, typically placed on top of cold brew coffee.
Starbucks also pays homage to the spooky season with a new Halloween-themed offering, the Mummy Cookie. This treat appears to be a frosted sugar cookie, but only time will reveal if it comes with any unique flavoring. Looking for more thrilling options this fall at Starbucks?
