From Pumpkin Spice Lattes to Peppermint Mocha: How Seasonal Drinks Define Our Year

On August 26th, the Starbucks fall menu was available for purchase. Customers wait all year for these delicious seasonal drinks and desserts. It provides a sense of coziness and warmth, indicating the start of the fall season. On November 6th, the holiday menu will be introduced. During both seasons the media explodes in terms of reviews, most popular drinks, and overall excitement for the release of new Starbucks items!

All year round, many customers wait for these two drop dates. This creates anticipation and scarcity of the favorable menu items, especially because they are only available for a short period of time.

Personally, my favorite item on the fall menu is the Iced Pumpkin Cream Chai Tea Latte. This drink is made with iced chai tea and milk, and topped with a sweet pumpkin cream cold foam and pumpkin spice. My favorite item on the holiday menu is the Gingerbread Oatmilk Chai Latte. This drink combines chai tea with gingerbread syrup and oat milk; it can be made hot or iced. Both of these drinks are very popular and perfect for both the fall and winter seasons. I recommend trying both of these drinks! This winter season, I would like to try the Eggnog Latte which combines espresso and steamed eggnog, which is typically topped with nutmeg!
