Forget Pumpkin Spice Lattes, We’re Going to Starbucks for Its Strangely-Named NEW Drink

It’s officially Halloween season according to Disney, but the rest of the world might not be ready quite yet.

Of course, if you celebrate Halloween on the timeline of pumpkin spice lattes, then your moment is almost here! Starbucks recently announced their fall lineup of beverages, and they’re coming to locations across the U.S. on August 25th. We can’t wait, particularly because they’re introducing some NEW options.

Of course, the iconic Pumpkin Spice Latte will return on August 25th, but it’s being joined by some others, including the new Iced Pumpkin Cream Shaken Espresso, Pumpkin Spice Chai, and Iced Pumpkin Cream Matcha. Returning faves that will be available include the Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew, Iced Pumpkin Cream Chai, and Pumpkin Spice Frappucino.

But pumpkin isn’t the only fall flavor in the lineup! Pecan-flavored beverages are back, like the Pecan Cortado, Iced Pecan Crunch Latte, and Pecan Crunch Latte. Also, to hop on recent trends, Starbucks is introducing Banana-flavored drinks for the fall. This means you can try out the new Iced Banana Bread Latte and Iced Banana Bread Chai with banana, cinnamon, and brown sugar flavors. Nice and warm!

But the real kicker? Something we’re equally intrigued by and confused about…Chaider. Yes, it’s exactly what the name implies — chai mixed with apple cider. It has flavors of cinnamon and sweet spice, and we could see this either becoming THE must-have beverage this fall or the drink that turns into a strange meme. What do you think, will it work? Will it be delicious or off-putting? Only time will tell!

Of course, we can’t forget the eats that will be available. The new Chicken Bacon Protein Pocket is “toasted whole wheat lavash flatbread packed with tender chicken, crispy bacon and a creamy garlic herb cheese spread, containing 20 grams of protein.” There will also be a new Hedgehog Cake Pop! And of course, the Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffin is coming back for the season.

If you’ve got a hankering for some pumpkin spice, you only have to wait a few more days before you can snag your beverage of choice and start getting out that fall decor. Let the spooky season begin!
