Starbucks' iconic Pumpkin Spice Latte (PSL) is back, celebrating its 20th anniversary with a twist—adding a splash of alcohol for an adult version of the beloved fall classic. Since its debut in 2003, the PSL has become a seasonal phenomenon, selling hundreds of millions of cups. Traditionally mixed with pumpkin sauce, cinnamon, and nutmeg, the latte is now getting a boozy upgrade. VinePair suggests spiking it with Baileys, which complements the drink's flavors of pumpkin, chocolate, and vanilla. This new take on the PSL offers a flavorful treat with a buzz, perfect for those crisp autumn evenings. While Starbucks doesn't serve alcohol, this DIY approach allows customers to enjoy a spirited version at home or at parties. Other recommended liqueurs include flavored vodka and coffee liqueur, proving the versatility of this seasonal favorite.
