McDonald’s is trying to capture some of Starbucks market –and America’s current love of everything pumpkin –by introducing its own version of a pumpkin-spice latte.

 

According to Bloomberg, the McCafe pumpkin latte, as it is called, will have espresso, milk, and flavored syrup, and comes in fat or non-fat varieties.

 

The drink has about the same calories as Starbucks version, but the McCafe pumpkin latte will sell for $2.89, versus Starbucks’, which sells for about $4.55.

 

Bloomberg reports that McDonald’s may win over some budget-conscious, pumpkin-loving latte drinkers.

 

Starbucks introduced the pumpkin spice latte nine years ago and has sold 200 million since, Bloomberg reported.

 

McDonald’s version will only sell from now until mid-November.
