Halloween is right around the corner, and Starbucks has a new spooky drink in its fall menu. The pumpkin and pecan favorites have been available since late August, and the Black Cat Frappuccino will be available Oct. 22. These are the 10 Starbucks drinks you should try this Halloween, whether you’re looking for something festive for a costume party or something cozy to sip when you trick-or-treat.
Black Cat Frappuccino
The Black Cat Frappuccino is a crème Frappuccino flavored with chocolate cake, whipped cream and chocolate cat ears. It’s coming on Oct. 22 with select retailers in the U.S., and a new Venti Black Night Cookie, and will sell until supplies run out.
Pumpkin Spice Latte
A trip to Starbucks is incomplete without the Pumpkin Spice Latte that was introduced over 20 years ago. It consists of espresso and steamed milk, topped with pumpkin spice sauce and whipped cream and finished with pumpkin pie spice. It is available hot or iced.
Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew
Iced coffee lovers will find this Coffee Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew to be one of the most popular fall beverages at Starbucks. Smooth cold brew with vanilla syrup, and finished with a pumpkin cream cold foam and a sprinkling of pumpkin spice. It’s a pillowy pumpkin delight.
Iced Pumpkin Cream Shaken Espresso
The Iced Pumpkin Cream Shaken Espresso is a new addition to Starbucks’ fall lineup of iced espressos that adds pumpkin cream to the mix. Shaken with ice, espresso makes a strong, chilled beverage with a frothy finish, so it’s a good option for anyone who’s in need of an energy boost before trick-or-treating.
Pumpkin Spice Chai
Another new addition is Pumpkin Spice Chai, which is Starbucks’s spiced chai infused with the pumpkin spice taste. Chai’s warm flavors of cinnamon, ginger and cardamom complement pumpkin well, making it a great option for those that love their tea or coffee with a bit of spice.
Iced Pumpkin Cream Matcha
This year matcha enthusiasts will find another drink to enjoy this fall with Iced Pumpkin Cream Matcha. It is a blend of earthy green tea matcha and pumpkin cream, bringing a new twist to the pumpkin flavor. It’s a great choice for those who like a cup of tea over a shot of espresso.
Pumpkin Spice Frappuccino
The Pumpkin Spice Frappuccino has coffee, milk, ice and pumpkin spice flavor, topped with whipped cream and pumpkin spice. It’s a perfect treat for any Halloween evening or after your trick-or-treating.
Pecan Crunch Latte
The Pecan Crunch Latte is a nutty concoction without the pumpkin flavor, but with a crunchy topping. It comes hot or iced and, on October 1, Starbucks added a new Salted Pecan Cold Foam option for those with a sweet and salty taste.
Chaider
One of Starbucks’ newest fall beverages, the Chaider is a blend of chai and cider-inspired flavors. Can be served hot or cold. For those looking for a fun Halloween drink this season that’s a little different than the pumpkin drinks, this is the one to try.
