Forget the leaves changing colour, the real sign we’re truly at the end of the summer is the long-awaited arrival of Starbuck’s cult Pumpkin Spice Latte.

Fans of the much-loved drink have purchased over 200 million of the handcrafted beverages since Starbucks introduced PSL in 2003, and it’s so in demand that its official Twitter account, @theRealPSL, has clocked up over 85K followers.

It’s no surprise then, that M&M’s would follow in the footsteps of brands like Oreo and Pringles and jump on the spicy pumpkin bandwagon, releasing a new seasonal flavour in homage to the drink.

If you aren’t already aware, the signature espresso and steamed milk latte features the unmistakable spices of the colder months – cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and clove – and is finished with whipped cream and pumpkin spice topping.

The festive M&M’s are currently on sale in Target in America, alongside a limited edition pecan pie flavour.

Sadly, there’s no news as when to when they’re going to cross the shores to the UK, but since it took Starbucks 10 years to bring the Pumpkin Spice Latte to patient Britons, we might be in for a long wait.
