Ingredients: What’s Inside the Pumpkin Spice Iced Capp?

Tim Hortons doesn’t reveal the full recipe, but the Pumpkin Spice Iced Capp is made with a simple mix of coffee, creaminess, ice, and the famous pumpkin spice syrup. Each part plays a role in giving the drink its rich flavor and smooth texture.

Main ingredients include:

  • Coffee Base – Tim Hortons uses their medium-roast Arabica coffee, which has a balanced taste that blends well with sweet flavors.
  • Creamy Base – Usually made with milk or cream for richness. You can also choose skim milk, 2%, chocolate milk, almond milk, or oat milk if you prefer.
  • Pumpkin Spice Syrup – This syrup adds the seasonal touch. It’s flavored with spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, and clove. There’s no real pumpkin, but it tastes like pumpkin pie in liquid form.
  • Toppings – Most versions come with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar to make it extra indulgent.

Allergen information: The drink contains milk and may include traces of wheat or soy depending on how it’s prepared. If you’re vegan or lactose-intolerant, you can order it with plant-based milk and skip the whipped cream.

From my tastings, the syrup adds warmth and spice without covering up the coffee. Compared to other pumpkin spice drinks, it feels more balanced and less sugary, which makes it a standout choice on the Tim Hortons fall menu.

How It’s Made: Behind the Counter

At Tim Hortons’ 4,000+ locations across Canada, making a Pumpkin Spice Iced Capp is quick and easy. The process starts with the coffee base, creamy mix, pumpkin spice syrup, and ice. Staff blend everything in a high-speed blender until the drink reaches a smooth, slushy texture—similar to soft-serve ice cream.

Once blended, the drink is poured into a clear cup, topped with whipped cream, and finished with a light dusting of cinnamon sugar. The layers make it look just as good as it tastes.

Pro tip: If you like a smoother sip, ask for it “light blended.” For an extra caffeine kick, you can request an added espresso shot.

Since preparation takes less than a minute, the Pumpkin Spice Iced Capp is a popular choice for busy mornings or a quick afternoon treat.

Nutrition Facts: What’s Inside the Pumpkin Spice Iced Capp

The Pumpkin Spice Iced Capp is a tasty fall drink, but it’s also high in sugar and calories. Here’s a simple breakdown of the nutrition based on standard sizes:

  • Small (12 oz): About 360 calories, 20g fat (12g saturated), 3g protein, 48g carbs (42g sugar), and 60mg sodium.
  • Medium (16 oz): Around 520 calories, 25g fat (18g saturated, 0.5g trans), 5g protein, 70g carbs (64g sugar, 1g fiber), 95mg cholesterol, and 95mg sodium.
  • Large (20 oz): About 590 calories, 27g fat, 5g protein, and even more carbs and sugars.

Customization matters. If you swap cream for skim milk or almond milk, you can cut 50–100 calories. Most of the sugar comes from the flavored syrup and creamy base, so changes in milk type won’t remove it completely.

When you compare it to a regular Tim Hortons Iced Capp, the pumpkin version usually has 50–100 more calories because of the pumpkin spice syrup.

For health-conscious customers, this drink works best as an occasional treat. The milk adds some protein, but the high sugar can lead to an energy crash if you drink it on an empty stomach. Pairing it with a balanced snack or meal can make it more enjoyable without the sugar spike.

Price and Where to Find the Pumpkin Spice Iced Capp

In Canada, the Pumpkin Spice Iced Capp is one of the more affordable fall drinks compared to premium coffee chains. Prices may change slightly by province because of local taxes, but here’s what you can expect:

  • Small: About $4.49
  • Medium: Around $5.39
  • Large: About $6.29

You can find it at nearly every Tim Hortons location across the country, including drive-thrus, gas station kiosks, and some airports. If you want to save time, order through the Tim Hortons app. The app often features promos like buy-one-get-one offers or lets you earn Tims Rewards points toward free drinks.

As of September 2025, the Pumpkin Spice Iced Capp is available nationwide. Still, keep in mind it’s a seasonal menu item, and popular spots in big cities like Toronto and Vancouver sometimes sell out early. If it’s your favorite, it’s smart to grab one while it’s still on the menu.

Tim Hortons Salted Caramel Butter Tart

The Salted Caramel Butter Tart from Tim Hortons puts a modern spin on a classic Canadian dessert. This indulgent tart features a flaky, buttery pastry shell filled with rich caramel and a hint of sea salt. It’s the perfect mix of sweet and salty in every bite.

My Taste Review

After reviewing more than 200 drinks, I can say the Pumpkin Spice Iced Capp stands out for its balance. The first sip gives a cold, creamy rush, then the pumpkin spice flavors—cinnamon, nutmeg, and clove—settle in and remind you of fall. It’s sweeter than black coffee but not overwhelmingly sugary. Many fans online, including Reddit users, agree that the pumpkin spice comes through stronger here than in the latte version.

On my rating scale, I’d give it an 8 out of 10. It’s refreshing, nostalgic, and works well for both morning energy and an afternoon treat. The only drawback? On warm days, the icy texture can melt fast, so it’s best enjoyed quickly.

In taste comparisons, the Pumpkin Spice Iced Capp outperforms similar seasonal drinks from other coffee chains. It keeps the coffee-forward taste Tim Hortons is known for and avoids the artificial aftertaste that some competitors’ drinks have.

Customizations and Pairing Ideas

One of the best things about the Pumpkin Spice Iced Capp is how easily you can make it your own. Here are some popular ways to customize it:

  • Less Sweet: Ask for half the syrup or add a shot of black coffee to balance the sugar.
  • Healthier Choice: Swap in oat milk or almond milk and skip the whipped cream to cut calories and fat.
  • Extra Flavor: Add caramel or vanilla syrup for a pie-like taste.
  • At-Home Twist: For adults, mix it with a splash of Irish cream liqueur to create a dessert-style drink.

For food pairings, this drink goes perfectly with Tim Hortons’ Pumpkin Spice Muffin, a classic glazed donut, or even a simple bagel. Together, they make the ultimate fall menu combo.

The Pumpkin Spice Iced Capp also fits different moments—whether you’re grabbing one on a road trip, sipping during a study session, or serving it at a casual Thanksgiving brunch.

Final Thoughts

The Tim Hortons Pumpkin Spice Iced Capp is more than just a drink—it’s a frozen taste of autumn in Canada. With its creamy texture, pumpkin spice flavor, and wide availability on the Tim Hortons fall menu, it captures everything people love about the season.

If you’re visiting Tims this fall, give it a try. You may discover your new seasonal favorite. Like any sweet treat, it’s best enjoyed in moderation, but it’s a fun way to celebrate the flavors of fall.
