We Tried Every Starbucks Fall Drink and Here's Our Top Picks

If you are anything like me and never skip a day of starbucks then you must be waiting for their fall drinks right after you felt the crisp and cold in the air. Well, I did the same and actually tried every single one of them, worst to best. You will find a wide range of Starbucks fall drinks with exciting and delicious flavors. Whether you are into pumpkin spice taste, apple, oatmeal and everything that feels like fall. We have tried the Starbucks Fall drinks in every flavor they are offering but out of every single one we picked the best ones that will satisfy every type of taste buds.

Top Starbucks Fall Drinks To Try

From a rich flavored iced apple crisp oatmeal shaken espresso to the delicious iced pumpkin cream chai latte, all you need is these Starbucks drinks to fuel up and stay active and fulfilled all season long.

Iced Apple Crisp Oatmilk Shaken Espresso

Our top pick for this year's Starbucks fall season - an apple-flavored drink that has surprised us all by taking the number one spot for the first time ever. Our team's reaction to this drink was unexplainable: it's good, and we're shocked. If you are a fan of the Iced Brown Sugar Oat Milk Shaken Espresso, you will definitely want to try this apple version as your go-to fall treat. The addition of oat milk and shaken espresso creates a well-blended drink that perfectly captures the essence of apple, making it the perfect drink for those warm fall days. We all agreed that this drink strikes the perfect balance between an everyday coffee drink and a sweet treat beverage. We would definitely order it again and highly recommend it.

Iced Pumpkin Cream Chai Latte

Starbucks added last year’s TikTok-famous secret menu item to their fall lineup, but this year’s version did not live up to our expectations. Veteran Starbucks taste-testers agreed that the Iced Pumpkin Cream Chai Latte does not compare to last year’s secret menu formulation. The absence of pumpkin sauce in this year’s drink makes it less sweet and less of a true treat. Despite this, we still enjoyed it and recommend ordering an Iced Chai Latte with Pumpkin Sauce and Pumpkin Cold Foam instead, to satisfy your fall cravings.

Iced Apple Crisp Macchiato 

Please note that while we were not impressed by the Iced Apple Crisp Macchiato during its first two years, this year's version has significantly improved and is now one of our favorites. Made with oat milk and Blonde Espresso, it still has a hint of fall flavor but is not as overpowering as in previous years. The taste is akin to a childhood cereal like Apple Jacks or Cinnamon Toast Crunch. Overall, we were pleasantly surprised by this drink and happy to see that Starbucks has found success with their apple-flavored offerings.

Pumpkin Spice Frappuccino

If you're craving a quintessential fall beverage that's bursting with pumpkin flavor and nostalgic vibes, then look no further than this drink. Despite not typically ordering Frappuccinos, we're always pleasantly surprised by how much we enjoy this seasonal treat year after year. It's perfect for when you want to indulge in something special. Just be prepared to say the word "Frappuccino" out loud when ordering. While it's definitely worth it, it may not become a regular part of your beverage routine.

Hot Apple Crisp Oatmilk Macchiato

If you're looking for a warm and comforting fall drink, then the hot version of this beverage is perfect for you. It feels like a cozy hug on a crisp autumn day. After experimenting with the apple crisp flavor for three years, Starbucks has finally found the perfect balance. With a deliciously cozy taste and a harmonious blend of apple and coffee, this drink is a great seasonal alternative for those who are not fans of PSL. It's the ideal drink to grab on the first chilly day of the year.

Conclusion

After trying every Starbucks fall drink, we've narrowed down our top picks. The pumpkin spice latte is a classic for a reason, but the hot apple crisp oatmilk macchiato is a must-try for those looking for something rich and indulgent. Overall, the fall menu did not disappoint.
