As the fall season approaches, the return of pumpkin spice is imminent. Starbucks delighted fans by unveiling the much-anticipated pumpkin spice latte earlier than expected. The wave of pumpkin spice mania began today, August 24, marking the earliest release date ever set by Starbucks for this seasonal favorite.
Starbucks wasted no time in bringing back not only the classic pumpkin spice latte but also introducing the pumpkin spice cold brew, a newer addition to their spicy pumpkin offerings. Surprisingly, Starbucks wasn’t the first to dive into the pumpkin spice frenzy this year. Dunkin’ took the lead by offering pumpkin spice drinks starting on August 18, setting their own early record. Additionally, grocery stores nationwide are already stocking up on fall-themed treats, including various pumpkin spice products.
The date has officially fall-in! Starting tomorrow Aug. 24th, pumpkin returns to Starbucks stores across the U.S. and Canada, including the fall favorite duo Pumpkin Spice Latte and Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew.?https://t.co/7bMXAGDGhk

While the early pumpkin spice craze might seem premature, it appears that many are eager to jump into the fall spirit despite summer still lingering. Last week, Home Depot experienced a rush in sales after launching their line of early Halloween products online, with items quickly selling out. It seems the desire for fall is strong among consumers.
