Good morning,
Though it is far from sweater weather, Starbucks is preparing for autumn.
The coffee chain’s famous Pumpkin Spice Latte is officially on the menu again, reminding all of us that this summer weather will undoubtedly end soon. People might have to pay more for the lattes though because Starbucks recently increased its price for tall from $4.25 to $4.45, according to Time Money. Ohio University students buying at Front Room don’t have to worry about that price increase.
Cost aside, be prepared to stand in line for a little while longer.
