Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew

This drink's placement should come as no surprise. When the Starbucks Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew debuted with the 2019 fall menu, it became an instant hit. It's Starbucks' first new pumpkin drink since the PSL, and it's noticeably better than its predecessor. The drink is delicious, and it includes cold brew, pumpkin cream cold foam with "pumpkin spice topping", vanilla syrup, and ice.

There's so much about this drink that's both practical and delicious. It has something that both PSL haters and lovers will enjoy because it is sweet but not overly sweet. It has a nostalgic flavor and color, but it is refined and modern in its use of cold brew. Overall, it has all of Starbucks' best drink qualities in a cup: cold brew, vanilla syrup, and pumpkin flavor. It even has a beautiful orange hue in the cold foam which mixes in with the rest of the drink. The Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew is simply number two because the number one drink does most of these positive qualities a little better.
