Can you believe it’s the 20th anniversary of Pumpkin Spice Lattes? To celebrate, Starbucks Reserve® stores and Roasteries are offering limited edition pumpkin spice menu items for the very first time!
There are three new beverages in the line-up: a Pumpkin Spice Espresso Martini, Pumpkin Spice Whiskey Barrel-Aged Iced Latte, and the Starbucks Reserve® Pumpkin Spice Latte (PSL). Starbucks is also offering two new pumpkin food items: the Princi® Pumpkin Maritozzo, and a Princi® Pumpkin Caramel Mini-Bundt Cake.
I got a chance to try them all, and this is what I loved about each new pumpkin spice treat.
1. Pumpkin Spice Espresso Martini
The Starbucks signature Espresso Martini is already famous, but this fall version is even better. I loved the flavors of pumpkin, cinnamon, and nutmeg, and it’s even topped with a pumpkin spice whipped cream. Espresso lovers, rejoice!

2. Princi® Pumpkin Maritozzo
If you’ve never tried a maritozzo before, it’s a traditional Roman breakfast pastry. Starbucks elevated this even more with a soft, sweet brioche, and a delicious pumpkin spice cream. This was definitely my favorite bite of the day!

3. Pumpkin Spice Whiskey Barrel-Aged Iced Latte
One of my favorite unique drinks at the Starbucks Reserve® is their whiskey barrel-aged coffee. The coffee is aged in oak whiskey barrels, which helps absorb the whiskey flavors. And now, they have a pumpkin spice version!
The whiskey barrel-aged coffee is sweetened with a pumpkin spice sauce, mixed with milk over ice, and topped with a whiskey barrel-aged whipped cream. It’s truly the most delicious fall drink.
4. Princi® Pumpkin Caramel Mini-Bundt Cake
This pumpkin bundt cake is incredibly moist, and it’s complemented with a sweet caramel sauce and toasted pumpkin seeds.

5. Starbucks Reserve® Pumpkin Spice Latte (PSL)
Always a classic, this version of the PSL uses Starbucks Reserve® espresso and a mix of pumpkin, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. You can order it hot or iced, and customize it with the milk of your choice!
