Starbucks' fall menu in 2020, including the Pumpkin Spice Latte (PSL), came out on August 25, which was the earliest ever recorded return of the PSL at that time. The fall menu that year included the Pumpkin Spice Latte, Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew, Salted Caramel Mocha, and pumpkin bakery items such as the Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffin and Pumpkin Scone.
For more recent context, in 2025, Starbucks released the fall menu on August 26, continuing the trend of launching approximately a month before the official start of fall. This menu again featured the Pumpkin Spice Latte along with other seasonal favorites and new items.
