As we jump headfirst into the fun fall season, the beloved pumpkin spice latte is popping up at cafes all around the Edmonton area.
This seasonal drink appears on cafe and coffee house menus across the city every autumn. We’ve done the duty of rounding up some spots in and around Edmonton where you’ll be able to find them. If you’re in search of a pumpkin spice latte, look no further, because we’ve definitely got you covered.
While Starbucks didn’t invent the concept of pumpkin and coffee together, the coffee chain certainly helped popularize the combination when it rolled out the seasonal offering in 2004. Now, every year during the fall, Starbucks roll out this drink to the roaring fans across the country.
This year, according to Starbucks, the drink dropped on Aug. 25 and will be available throughout the fall season.
