Starbucks’ FALL 2021 menu has been leaked online, and pumpkin will be king! The menu hasn’t been launched officially, but it was leaked online, and there are lots of pumpkin goodies.
As a brown girl who was born and raised in the tropics, fall is my favourite season. It is the right amount of cool and there is nothing like boots, a coat, and sipping on a warm pumpkin beverage in the crisp fall wind.
Your Pumpkin Pick-Me-Ups Are Back!
Starbucks is reportedly rolling out all of our seasonal favourites on August 24th. Along with our all-time fav PSLs, there are lots of other pumpkin goodies. We should crown Starbucks PUMPKIN KING!
Fall-themed at-home coffees and creamers are all back and soon going to be available at your local grocery store. We also spied something new, Pumpkin Spice Cold Brew. A new drink is also on the menu, Apple Crisp Macchiato!
Bring Fall Home This Year with these favourites:
PUMPKIN SPICE LATTE
The Queen Bee of Fall lattes. Starbucks’ most popular seasonal sipper of all time.
Espresso and steamed milk with the celebrated flavour combination of pumpkin, cinnamon, nutmeg and clove. Enjoy it topped with whipped cream and real pumpkin pie spices
CHAI TEA LATTE
Although this is on the menu all year, this is more of a fall drink. Black tea infused with cinnamon, clove and other warming spices, combined with steamed milk and topped with foam for the perfect balance of sweet and spicy. An iconic chai cup.
PUMPKIN SPICE CHAI TEA LATTE
PUMPKIN CREAM COLD BREW
If you’re not a fan of milky lattes early in the morning, this is a great substitute. Sweetened with vanilla syrup ( you could ask the barista to use pumpkin spice syrup instead) and topped with a pumpkin cream cold foam, and a dusting of pumpkin spice topping.
CARAMEL APPLE SPICE
This is another permanent menu item that we have deemed more suited to fall. Steamed apple juice complemented with cinnamon syrup, whipped cream and a caramel sauce drizzle.
MAPLE PECAN LATTE
A can’t-miss autumn latte. Rich espresso and steamed milk with notes of maple syrup, pecan and brown butter, finished with a beautiful sugar topping.
SALTED CARAMEL MOCHA FRAPPUCCINO
Frappuccinos are so good that we crave them even in the winter. Blended mocha sauce and toffee nut syrup with coffee, milk and ice, finished off with sweetened whipped cream, caramel sauce and a blend of turbinado sugar and sea salt for an explosion of flavour in every sip.
SALTED CARAMEL MOCHA LATTE
Frapps too cold for ya? Then this you will love!

CINNAMON ROLL FRAPPUCCINO (Secret Menu Item)
Yes, my friends, Starbucks has a secret menu. How Do You Order From The Starbucks Secret Menu?
You have to know what you’re ordering. Most of the time, the barista will ask you to show them the recipe. So, if you see something you like, take a screenshot or bookmark it on your phone.
Start by ordering a Vanilla Bean Frappuccino.
Add white mocha syrup (1 pump for a tall, 2 for grande, 3 for venti)
Add cinnamon dolce syrup (1 pump for a tall, 2 for grande, 3 for venti)
Top with cinnamon dolce powder.
FALL BREEZE DRINK (Secret Menu Item)
Start by ordering a Venti Iced Chai Tea Latte, made with breve. (Half and half).
Add 4 pumps of cinnamon dolce syrup and a caramel drizzle.
PUMPKIN PIE FRAPPUCCINO (Secret Menu Item)
Start by ordering a Grande Pumpkin Creme Frappuccino, ask for cinnamon dolce syrup and for cinnamon powder to be blended in. And finally, cinnamon dolce sprinkles on top of the whipped cream.
Enjoy your fall drinks with these scrumptious Starbucks goodies. Pumpkin Scone, Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffin, Fox Cake Pop, and Pumpkin Bread. Ask your barista to heat treats up for ultimate autumn indulgence.
Pro Tips for lighter, less sweet drinks:
Request fewer pumps of syrup if you’re worried about sugar.
Substitute milk with oat milk.
Hold the whipped cream.
Substitute cold foam with a pump of pumpkin spice syrup, a sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice, and a splash of milk to a regular cold brew coffee.
