"While we know there's no room on the Starbucks menu for every drink it has ever made, we do wish a few of its discontinued fall drinks would make a comeback. There are plenty of seasonal Starbucks items that have been taken off the menu, but the autumnal drinks hit harder for those who aren't stuck on pumpkin spice lattes all season. Once the year's fall lineup gets announced and you don't see your favorite, it can be disappointing."
"If we wish hard enough and loudly enough on social media, sometimes our favorite drinks do return. For example, we were going to add Apple Crisp drinks to this list, but everyone was so sad they didn't come back that Starbucks announced they'd be coming back after all. So, if you have a favorite autumn drink you're missing, it's entirely possible to bring them back with a team effort from fans."
Many seasonal Starbucks items have been discontinued, with fall drinks provoking particular disappointment among customers who favor flavors beyond pumpkin spice. Autumn offerings commonly include caramel, butterscotch, maple, apples, pecans, and Halloween-themed elements that drive seasonal anticipation. Fan response on social media can influence Starbucks to reinstate drinks; Apple Crisp beverages returned after significant customer outcry. Eight specific discontinued fall drinks are highlighted as candidates for a comeback. One example, the Witch's Brew Frappuccino, appeared in 2018 as a limited-time spooky-season offering characterized by purple drink and green-sprinkled whipped cream despite flavors that did not align with its colors.
