Starbucks just launched a cold brew Pumpkin Spice Latte and we want it

It’s September next month and that means one thing: Autumn is (finally) here.

There are many indicators of this fine season – colourful leaves, misty and moody starts, foraging, the arrival of even more weirdly flavoured beers – but of all the signs, nothing beats the arrival of the Pumpkin Spice Latte.

For many, it’s what makes autumn autumn, and once again, our sugar crashes are about to get even more real.

This year’s addition, however, comes with a new arrival: the cold brew pumpkin spice latte. And it’s big.

Why? Because it’s the first time the global coffee giant has added a new pumpkin flavoured beverage to its menu in 12 long years.

Starbuck’s new drink, which will be available in the US and Canada from tomorrow, clocks in 250 calories and will set you back $4.45 (£3.64) for a grande.

The beans brewed are a part of the brand’s cold brew collection, and features a hint of vanilla, real pumpkin flavouring, pumpkin cream cold foam, and a dusting of pumpkin spice topping – basically a mash up of clove, nutmeg and cinnamon.

Best part is that it’s actually 130 calories less than the original, and is, according to the team at Starbucks HQ, less sweeter than your average hot pumpkin grande.

We reached out to the Starbucks team, and as of now, there’s no word if the sweet drink will be coming to the UK. Yet.

If it doesn’t, just ask your barista to just make a cold version of the original. I did last year, and it was sensational.
