Celebrate fall with the iconic Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Latte

August is coming to a close. Back-to-school season is in full swing. While sweltering summer temperatures are still bearing down on most of the U.S., we're all waiting for that first chill in the air that signals that fall is coming. And what does fall bring, other than crunchy leaves, sweaters and spooky season? Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Lattes, of course. And for those of us who start to get a serious PSL craving this time of year, finally some good news.

When does the popular beverage come out? Last year it was back starting Aug. 22 — so we're keeping our eyes peeled for an announcement. But you don't necessarily have to make a trip to Starbucks. All you need is the  recipe in this article and some of the products featured below.

PSLs are in good company this year

This is the Pumpkin Spice Latte's 21st year at Starbucks, and the fall menu features some other craveable fall treats. There are three new beverages this year: the Iced Apple Crisp Cream Chai, Iced Pecan Crunch Latte Oatmilk and Salted Pecan Cream Cold Foam. Returning favorites include the Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew, Iced Pumpkin Cream Chai, Iced Apple Crisp Shaken Espresso Oatmilk and Apple Crisp Macchiato Oatmilk.

And what would a fall beverage be without a treat? This year, Starbucks is replacing its seasonal Owl Cake Pop with a Racoon Cake Pop and the Fox Sugar Cookie will be swapped with a Mummy Cookie.
