Starbucks Canada: Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew Review

Pinterest LinkedIn Tumblr

Starbucks is at it again and celebrating the arrival of Fall with pumpkin spiced everything. I really love the fall and the foliage is changing, its a good temperature for a light jacket, and of course there’s Halloween and my birthday.

The Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew is perfect for those who love a coffee-forward version that isn’t too milky and sweet. I’ve had the famous PSL but I alway found it too sweet so half sweet was always my option. Did you know, it was launched in 2003, so it’s been around for the last 16 years?!

They started developing the Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew in 2019 and came up with 10 different iterations until they picked the one that’s launching today. They combined the strong cold brew with the pumpkin spices that surprisingly work really well together. You get the hit of the pumpkin spiced cream and then the boldness of the cold brew. It goes down smooth and not too sweet at all.
