While it may still be summer, many Starbucks fans are already looking forward to treating themselves to the brand's annual autumn favourite - a pumpkin spice latte.

Only available for a short time every year, the pumpkin spice latte was first developed by Starbucks in January 2003, and it has proved to be a huge hit ever since.

The popular drink is a warming combination of Starbucks espresso, pumpkin flavoured sauce and steamed milk, topped with whipped cream, cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves.

Last year a vegan-friendly version of the drink, made using dairy-free sauce, was also made available, along with an iced latte.

When will the pumpkin spice latte be available?

Traditionally, pumpkin spice lattes were originally made available from October, but in 2019 they were brought back early - from 5 September - meaning fans could enjoy the drink for even longer.

Starbucks typically makes pumpkin spice lattes available from September until Christmas, with prices starting at £3.15.
