A Pumpkin Spice Latte drink rests on a table at a Starbucks in New York, on Thursday, Aug. 24, 2023.

Pumpkin Spice Latte returns to Starbucks in less than a week — a clear sign that fall is just around the corner.

Known as the PSL for short, the drink makes its debut Tuesday, Aug. 26.

The Pumpkin Spice Latte is made with real pumpkin, according to the Starbucks announcement, and many view its return as the “unofficial start of fall.”

Not only is the PSL coming back, but Starbucks is also bringing back the following drinks:

Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew Iced Pumpkin Cream Chai Pecan Crunch Oatmilk Latte

New this year, Starbucks is launching a Pecan Oatmilk Cortado and Italian Sausage Egg Bites.

Over at Dunkin’, however, the Pumpkin Spice Latte has already returned, USA Today reported, beating Starbucks to the punch this year.

The Cereal N’ Milk Latte is new at Dunkin’ this year, and it’s made with marshmallowy cereal milk, the outlet said.

Other new Dunkin’ items include:

Iced Pumpkin Loaf Mixed Berry Daydream Refresher, the latest beverage the chain has created with pop star Sabrina Carpenter

Returning to the Dunkin’ menu is the $6 Meal Deal, which includes a bacon, egg and cheese sandwich, hash browns and a medium hot coffee (14 oz.) or iced coffee (24 oz.).

The full fall menu at Dunkin’ is as follows this year:

Iced Pumpkin Loaf Pumpkin Cake Donut Pumpkin Munchkins Donut Hole Treats Kreme Delight Donut (new) Chipotle Loaded Hash Browns (new) Maple Sugar Bacon Chipotle Hash Brown Wake-Up Wrap Ham & Swiss Croissant Stuffer Braided Apple Pie
