Starbucks PSL is back—these 3 cities will have something extra

It’s that time of the year again: The leaves haven’t begun to change and the sun is still blazing, but the quintessential flavor of fall, Starbucks’s Pumpkin Spice Latte (PSL), is back.

And while customers nationwide will be able to get their yearly fix, a few select locations will get a taste of an exclusive fall menu—and a brand new seasonal latte that might just give the PSL a run for its money.

Starbucks’s fall 2025 menu will drop in stores on August 26. Alongside the beloved PSL, the coffeehouse chain is bringing back its Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew, Iced Pumpkin Cream Chai, and Pecan Crunch Oatmilk Latte.

This year, Starbucks is also adding an Italian Sausage flavor to its line of Egg Bites, alongside a new Pecan Oatmilk Cortado, which Allrecipes reports is “made with three shots of Starbucks Blonde Espresso plus pecan, brown butter, and holiday baking spice flavors.”

Starbucks customers in 3 cities get even more

In New York City, Chicago, and Seattle, some customers will have access to an even wider selection of fall drinks. Today, Starbucks announced an exclusive fall menu for its premium Reserve roasteries and stores, which the company describes as locations dedicated to “experimenting with coffee as an art form.”

Here are the new items on offer this year:

Coffee

• Pumpkin Spice Duo Flight: This item includes two beverages: an Iced Pumpkin Spice Masala Chai Latte and a Pumpkin Spice Whiskey Barrel-Aged Cold Brew (which, as the name suggests, pairs cold brew aged in a whiskey barrel with a pumpkin-spice sauce). Starbucks describes the pairing as “crafted to be enjoyed side by side for the ultimate pumpkin spice tasting.” 
• Tiramisu Latte: This special beverage might just dethrone the PSL for the title of the most indulgent liquid fall treat. It combines Starbucks Reserve espresso with rich dark chocolate and steamed milk, topped with a layer of tiramisu cold foam and a dusting of dark chocolate mocha powder. Per the press release, it will be a permanent addition to Reserve menus. 

Cocktail

• Pumpkin Spice Whiskey Barrel-Aged Manhattan: Who says the PSL is just a daytime drink? At Reserve locations, the beverage is getting a boozy glow-up featuring Whiskey Barrel-Aged Cold Brew, Knob Creek Bourbon, Carpano Antica Formula Vermouth, Averna Amaro, Scrappy’s Aromatic Bitters, and a pumpkin pie spice cold foam. Cheers!

Food

• Pumpkin S’mores Tart: For those seeking to wash down their sweet beverage with an even sweeter dessert, this item is described as “a crisp graham cracker shell filled with creamy pumpkin cheesecake topped with caramel gold chocolate ganache and toasted marshmallows.”
• Squash and Ricotta Galette: This savory tart pairs a parmesan crust with a filling of ricotta and roasted seasonal squash, finished with fresh herbs and parmigiano Reggiano.
• Coffee Hazelnut Brioche: Rounding out the Reserve’s new bakery items is a coffee-flavored brioche filled with hazelnut cream and topped with a coffee hazelnut glaze.
