Summer officially still has a couple of weeks left but you wouldn’t know it with all this talk of what has become the quintessential drink of fall: the pumpkin spice latte.
You can officially snag a PSL — if you want to, but frankly, some of us are still over here enjoying summer — starting on August 28, 2018.
This is the PSL’s 15th consecutive year on Starbucks’ fall menu, and it’s safe to say the drink is a crowd favourite.
Starbucks started buzz swirling for the beloved PSL earlier this summer — while us normal people were all enjoying beach days and swimming pools — after they launched a private Facebook group called the Leaf Rackers Society, where lovers of fall could go to talk about the season and the things they love about it.
When Starbucks stores starting receiving early shipments of ingredients for the drink, speculation promptly followed about when the release date would be. Starbucks rewarded fans by launching the PSL in cafes a full week earlier than usual.
If past years are any indication, Starbucks will likely also launch at least one other fall drink, so if PSLs aren’t your thing you’ll have other options.
