If you walk by your local Starbucks today and see customers screaming with ecstatic joy, don't be alarmed. They aren't experiencing a caffeine overdose, but rather are just excited for the news that the Pumpkin Spice Latte is coming back early this year.

The news was first revealed by the Pumpkin Spice Latte Twitter account (yes, a Starbucks drink actually has its own Twitter,) on August 7th.

For Starbucks connoisseurs, the Pumpkin Spice Latte is a big deal. The drink is usually only available during the Fall months, increasing its appeal as a limited favorite. And with this being the 10th year of the drink, you can be sure that Starbucks and fans will be celebrating a decade of pumpkin spiced goodness all season long.

The Pumpkin Spice Latte isn't the only cherished drink at Starbucks. Check out a few of the "secret" items you can get at the coffee chain below.

Butterbeer Frappuccino

This "Harry Potter" concoction starts off with a creme frappuccino made with whole milk and whipped cream. Add 3 pumps of caramel syrup, toffee nut, and caramel drizzle, and voila, a magical frozen coffee delight,

Cake Batter Frappuccino

Don't have the time to get your loved one a cake for their birthday? Just gift them this drink instead. Take a vanilla frappuccino, and add vanilla bean and almond flavoring.

Kit Kat Frappuccinno

Give me a break of that Kit-Kat-frap! If you want a coffee concoction that tastes just like a Kit Kat bar, get a Vanilla bean frappuccino with mocha drizzle, java chips and then whipped cream, mocha sauce, and cookie crumbles on top for one frappuccino that will satisfy both your coffee and sweet tooth.

Cotton Candy Frappuccino

It's not recommended to give children coffee, but parents will have to make an exception with this frozen pink wonder. Just ask for a Vanilla Bean Frappuccino with some extra pumps of raspberry syrup for a candy coffee delight.
