Starbucks Is Making All Our Fall Wishes Come True

This article is written by a student writer from the Spoon University at FSU chapter.

Fall is coming faster than you think, soon you’ll be replacing your summer short shorts and flip flops with stretchy leggings and Uggs. In other words, pumpkin spice season is almost upon us. I’ve come to the conclusion that the pumpkin spice craze is here to stay. You can basically find almost anything pumpkin spice flavored. It’s THE flavor of fall, duh. It’s not going anywhere anytime soon, thanks to Starbucks’ infamous #PSL. Ready or not, fall is coming.

The Announcement

On August 10th, Starbucks announced the launch of two new pumpkin spice products in a press release that will be exclusively sold in grocery store locations nationwide. YES, you heard me right, not just at select locations but, nationwide. They didn’t specify exactly when in August these products will be available but, they did say that they would be available later this month right in time for school. 

The Product

Starbucks is seriously stepping their game with these two new products. One of them being a ready-to-drink Iced Pumpkin Spice Latte, which is retailed at $2.79 for a 14-ounce bottle. This phenomenon contains an array of flavors such as cinnamon, nutmeg, and clove spices with creamy milk just like the one you can get at a Starbucks location. The second one being Pumpkin Spice Flavored Ground Coffee, which is retailed at $9.99 for an 11-ounce bag of high-quality goodness. Starbucks will also be bringing back Pumpkin Spice Caffe Latte K-Cup Pods and VIA Instant Pumpkin Spice Lattes too! 

Instead of having to stop at Starbucks every single day to get your hands on your guilty pleasure, you’ll be able to just stock your whole fridge with ready-to-drink pumpkin spiced lattes. If you’re not lazy like me, you can opt for the ground coffee beans instead or both! I don’t make the rules. All I know is that Fall is coming and Starbucks continues to make all our #PSL wishes come true.
