Apple Is back: Starbucks revives fall-favorite espresso

When Starbucks first announced the return of the fall menu for 2025, fans instantly noticed one flavor missing: Apple. As Starbucks fans patiently awaited the drop of the seasonal fall menu in August, many were highly disappointed to find the seasonal favorite Iced Apple Crisp Oatmilk Shaken Espresso was missing from the menu. Luckily, Starbucks got news of the upset by fans, responding with a recent announcement that the Iced Apple Crisp Oatmilk Shaken Espresso will return to stores starting October 14. If the apple is your favorite fall coffee flavor, you’ll be able to get your autumn fix once again.

The Starbucks Iced Apple Crisp Oatmilk Shaken Espresso will feature Starbucks Blonde Espresso, crafted with balanced notes of apple, cinnamon, and brown sugar. This drink shakes all ingredients together and tops the espresso with oatmilk for a drink that tastes full of fall flavor. While the brand has recently announced efforts to simplify its menu, it’s clear that the Apple Crisp Oatmilk Shaken Espresso is one fall order that needs to stay.

In addition to the shaken espresso, a new Apple Crisp Protein Cold Foam will also be available to add atop any cold Starbucks beverage order (for a limited time only). The Apple Crisp Protein Cold Foam offers a seasonal variety of the coffee chain’s newly launched protein foams, designed to make adding protein to your coffee easier. Apple Crisp Protein Cold Foam can be added to any cold order or ordered in an Apple Crisp Protein Latte for an additional 15 grams of protein per grande size.

Dining With the Ghosts of The Church of Rock ‘n’ Roll
Food, Food Presentation, Meal

If I could travel back in time to see any concert, I would probably catch a show at the Fillmore East. An intimate venue with superb sound, the Church of Rock ’n’ Roll saw legendary performances from a pantheon of rock gods. Hendrix, Janis, Lennon, the Doors—the roster reads like a Who’s Who of classic rock. The Allman Brothers recorded their finest live album, At Fillmore East, at the East Village venue.

Alas, I am not Doc Brown from Back to the Future. I was born a generation too late for the golden age of rock, and the Fillmore East closed its doors in 1971. My rock ’n’ roll heroes may have shed their mortal coils, but I can toast their ghosts at Cathédrale, a restaurant just a few blocks from where the hallowed stage once stood.
