Starbucks autumn menu revealed as PSL finally returns
We’re officially on the cusp of Pumpkin Spice Latte season at Starbucks, with a handful of customers able to get the party started early by using their rewards accounts.
On Thursday (27 August), the American coffee chain announced plans for its autumn 2026 menu, heralding the return of the original PSL, first introduced way back in 2003.
It’s joined by its tempting sisters, the Pumpkin Spice Caramel Macchiato and caffeine-free Pumpkin Spice Coffee Frappuccino, as well as newcomers including a mouthwatering Iced Apple Crumble Matcha Latte.
Starbucks Rewards Members can sip on piping hot, iced, or blended beverages first, while casual coffee drinkers will have to wait until 3 September for the nationwide launch.

The September date also sees a plethora of pumpkin-rich baked goods going on sale at Starbucks. Fans will be able to pick up everything from muffins to cake pops and more.

Pumpkin Spice Latte
It’s finally back in business: the classic PSL returns to Starbucks on Thursday with prices starting at £4.70.
The iconic beverage is handcrafted with signature espresso and combined with a pumpkin spice-flavour sauce and steamed milk.
A swirl of whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and cloves finish the delight beloved by everyone from Katy Perry to Pete Wentz.
Pick yours up in an iced or classic hot version.
Maple Pecan Macchiato
New for autumn 2026, the Maple Pecan Macchiato pairs Starbucks Blonde Espresso with steamed milk and pecan-flavoured syrup for a flavour sensation.
A maple-flavour drizzle finishes the drink, which can be purchased hot or iced from £4.70.
Iced Apple Crumble Matcha Latte
Starbucks customers may have to say farewell to the Caramelised Banana Matcha Latte, but there’s something equally as moreish being introduced in its place.
This week, boujee beverage lovers can try the new Iced Apple Crumble Matcha.
It’s made with matcha green tea, milk and apple-flavoured sauce and is topped with apple-flavoured cream cold foam and a dusting of biscuit crumble.
In a word: Yum! Grab yours from £5.25.
Pumpkin Spice Caramel Macchiato
Returning for another stint on the Starbucks autumn menu is the Pumpkin Spice Caramel Macchiato.
A stunning blend of pumpkin spice-flavour sauce, milk, ice, caramel drizzle, and a spice blend of cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and cloves; pick it up from £4.95.
Pumpkin Spice Coffee Frappuccino
It wouldn’t be PSL season without an iconic autumn-spiked Frappuccino, would it?
The PSL Coffee Frappuccino blended beverage consists of pumpkin spice-flavour sauce, roast coffee and creamy milk, with whipped cream and a spice blend of cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and cloves being used to top.
A caffeine-free version, called a Pumpkin Spice Cream Frappuccino, is also available. Both can be picked up from £6.

Experts have topped the bake with maple-flavoured frosting, crunchy pumpkin seeds and a drip of caramel drizzle.
Priced at £3.60 per slice, it pairs perfectly with the returning Pumpkin Spice Caramel Macchiato.
Pumpkin Spice Cake Pop
New for 2026, the Pumpkin Spice Cake Pop treads a similar path to that of the Birthday Cake Pop.
This version sees a pumpkin-shaped vanilla cake layered with a pumpkin-spiced frosting mixed with a decadent caramelised biscuit crumb. White chocolate in spooky-season colours finishes the soon-to-be-viral item.
Prices start from £3.05 for the snack-sized superstar.
