Honestly, I tried it once and I'm not a fan so I don't really get what all the hoopla is about. But I'm probably in the minority!

I prefer other lattes, but in the fall PSLs are hard to skip!

I love anything spiced and fall-ish - apple, pumpkin, cinnamon, nutmeg...all of those things.

I prefer flavored coffee over lattes but I do enjoy a PSL every now and again.

I do like it (mostly because it tastes like "Fall" to me), but I do wish it was a little less sweet.

I got used to just having plain coffee and cream, so it's a little too much sweet for me. But, I'll try one each year just to see what the hype is about

@lawbee11: @BabyBoecksMom: have you ever tried ordering it half sweet? They use less syrup, I find I prefer most things from Sbux @ half sweet.
I'm not into the PSL. I don't like Chai, I don't like pumpkin pie, I'm just not into that flavour profile. Vanilla lattes forever!!

They are my favorite! But only the Dunkin ones. I don't like the Starbucks pumpkin drinks for some reason. I'll buy pumpkin creamer for at home in the fall, as well.

I am a caramel Apple cider kinda girl myself....Although I do love the smell of PSL

I love it but I can't stand that they're bringing it back so early this year! It's still 97 degrees here for crying out loud...

@prettylizy: I didn't know you could order it half sweet! I'll definitely do that next time.

Can someone please FedEx me one? we have Starbucks in Mexico but no PSL. I love it!!
eggplant / 11408 posts
YES!
@prettylizy: I've never tried that. Sounds like a great idea.
@mamimami: SADNESS. If I could, I would!

Eh. If I happen to be in a Starbucks in the real fall I'll order one, but I don't seek them out.

I don't like them. I don't like anything pumpkin flavored really.

@redsmarties: me too:)
Anything fall & winter flavored (spiced apple cider, peppermint hot cocoa, cinnamon chai latte...)
Love!

I like the change in flavors for fall. I'm not obsessed with the pumpkin spice latte but it's nice to have a change from my summer flavors. I like the Green Mountain pumpkin spice coffee k-cups for my Keurig.

I almost never get lattes, especially not flavored ones -- I prefer my coffee straight up. But the eggnog lattes around the holidays are my special treat...I like it when the PSLs come out because I know it won't be much longer until I get my eggnog ones!

i love the idea of them because they signify the coming of autumn, but i'm not a fan of the taste.

@BananaPancakes: Pumpkin creamer?? Where can I find this?? I feel like I would switch from tea at home if I had this as an option.

I like it. But I love
the gingerbread latte, so that's what I'm anxiously awaiting!

I mostly like my coffee unpolluted.
I don't mind a little milk for a special occasion, but Starbucks' flavored lattes are way too sweet for me. I've asked for less syrup and it still feels overpowering.

I've never had one, but I'm not a huge pumpkin fan, so I'm not sure I'd really like it.
@Mrs. High Heels: OMG, Peppermint Mocha is AMAZING!!!!!

Love them. I'm a huge fan of pumpkin. It'll be a treat for me since I'm sure it's insane on the WW points.

Every year I get all excited when they come out and I get one. Every year I remember that I really don't like them!

I had my first sip las week and was not a fan. However, I'm not a coffee drinker and that's all i could taste, I love pumpkin flavored everything so I thought I might like it...nope.

I usually get one each fall, but not my favorite. Too sweet! Maybe this year I'll try half sweet like @prettylizy suggested.

@redsmarties: My grocery store usually carries both of these.

It's a touch too sweet for me but I will have at least a few this season.

No, I don't like it. I wish I did though--so many friends on Facebook are writing about how excited they are that there back, and it would be fun to have something to look forward to like that each year.

I love it, but I always get less pumps of syrup to balance it out. Also, Chai + 1 or 2 pumps of PSL is delicious.
