7 Fall Starbucks Drinks Ranked From Worst to Best, Per EveryGirl

Starbucks is considered one of the most popular coffee chains in the United States. The Seattle-based coffee restaurant has been through a myriad of seasons.

Each season has a dedicated menu, and fall is no exception. Currently, Starbucks has a fall menu featuring a variety of drinks dedicated to the season. The burning question that many people wonder is, are all Starbucks fall drinks good? The EveryGirl has come together and ranked the fall drinks of 2025 from worst to best.

The method for ranking them was straightforward. “Our seven official taste testers tried seven total drinks. We scored each drink on a scale of one to five, the categories being overall taste and likelihood to get again,” EveryGirl reported. They then times it by two to make 10, so each drink had the potential to make all 10 points.

7. Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew 4/10

At seven, we have the pumpkin cream, cold brew. According to EveryGirl, the drink was very bitter and didn’t have enough pumpkin flavor.

“ I am a cold brew stand, and even I didn’t like it,” per the lifestyle publication.

6. Pecan Oatmilk Cortado 5/10

“This feels like December it’s delicious but too strong for my usual go to. I’d be spinning in circles after this,” EveryGirl explained.

Cortado is a 1:1 ratio of espresso and milk. despite being simple, it has a very strong taste, according to EveryGirl.

“This one ranked pretty low, mainly because of its strong espresso flavor as an espresso theme. I love this one, but the other office girls didn’t agree. They didn’t like the nutty flavor and agreed that it would probably be better with whole milk to make that pecan flavor stand out more.” EveryGirl said.

Because of the strong taste, it may not be suitable for everybody, this drink being a prime example.

5. Pumpkin Spice Frappuccino 6/10

Now we’re starting to get to more positive rankings. Pumpkin flavors seem to be a popular flavor to use during the fall months. In this next installment, the pumpkin spice Frappuccino is placed at number five because there’s barely any coffee taste, according to Everygirl.

“This one always scores decently high because the pumpkin spice flavor is amazing. It just doesn’t taste like coffee. It’s more like dessert in a cup,” said EveryGirl.

4. Iced Pumpkin Spice Latte 6.5/10

The ice pumpkin spice has two versions, the hot version and the cold version. Every girl says that even though the hot version is pretty good, the cold version is a little less than stellar.

“Maybe it was just the ice watering down the drink, but it also tasted more milk-heavy and totally different from the hot version,” EveryGirl said.

3. Iced Pecan Crunch Oatmilk Latte 7/10

At number three EveryGirl ranked the better version of the Oatmilk drink. The reason why the Cortado wasn’t well received was due to its strong taste, something the crunch latte excelled in. With the crunch latte it had a more balanced and sweet taste.

2. Iced Pumpkin Cream Chai 8/10

Second on the list is the ice pumpkin cream chai, a creamy smooth, drink mixed with chai spice and according to EveryGirl, it was a drastic improvement from last year.

“Despite last year’s low ranking, they got it right this time around. It was creamy and smooth with the perfect amount of chai spice,” the news outlet explained.

1. Pumpkin Spice Latte 9/10

The list can’t be finished off without mentioning the iconic pumpkin spice latte. But it’s not just any latte it’s hot. This drink has a perfect blend of coffee flavor and sweetness.

“The PSL is the true icon of the season and we all know it,” EveryGirl noted. “It’s classic. Nostalgic. Iconic.”
