Starbucks launches new fall menu featuring the Pumpkin Spice Latte and a collaboration with Martha Stewart and Belmont Cameli.
Starbucks announced the return of its iconic Pumpkin Spice Latte and an expanded fall menu beginning Tuesday, Aug. 25. The seasonal lineup includes new beverages such as the Iced Pumpkin Cream Shaken Espresso, Pumpkin Spice Chai, and a new Chaider drink that blends chai with cider-inspired flavors. The company also introduced new food items, including a Hedgehog Cake Pop and a Chicken Bacon Protein Pocket, while bringing back the Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffin. To celebrate the launch, Starbucks teamed up with Martha Stewart and Belmont Cameli for a promotional video. While the Pumpkin Spice Latte has been a staple for over 20 years, Starbucks chair and CEO Brian Niccol confirmed there are no plans to make it a year-round offering, as it remains the defining drink of the season. The fall collection also features the PSL Society merchandise, which includes drinkware and a signature hat inspired by the coffee chain's most famous seasonal beverage.
