Starbucks announced the change on its website, and the official pumpkin spice latte Twitter account (@TheRealPSL) alerted the news.

The Starbucks announcement — posted by Peter Dukes, the man you can thank for leading the team that developed the tasty drink — includes a list of ingredients in the pumpkin spice latte: espresso, milk, pumpkin spice flavored sauce (which includes pumpkin puree), whipped cream, vanilla syrup and pumpkin spice topping.

Starbucks came under fire last fall when it was reported the company did not use real pumpkin in the pumpkin spice latte.

The company has not released the date for when the drink will become available this fall.

In 2022, Georgia Power projected its winter peak electricity demand would grow by about 400 megawatts by 2031. Since then, Georgia has experienced a boom of data centers, which require a large load of electricty to run, and Georgia Power's recent forecast shows peak demand growing by 20 times the 400-megawatt estimate from just three years ago.
