Introducing Tropical Butterfly Refresher
This summer brings the debut of the new Tropical Butterfly Refresher, a bright flavor fusion of passionfruit and guava flavors with mango-pineapple flavored pearls for a layered burst of sweetness. A splash of butterfly pea flower infusion adds a vibrant natural purple hue that makes the drink just as beautiful as it is delicious.
Iced Horchata Shaken Espresso returns
Inspired by Mexican-style horchata, this refreshing and creamy fan-favorite is returning to the Starbucks menu for a limited time. The beverage is made with Starbucks Blonde Espresso and horchata syrup to create a fusion of warm cinnamon, sweet vanilla and subtle nutty notes of toasted rice flavors shaken together with ice and topped with oatmilk. Customers will also be able to enjoy the new Horchata Frappuccino blended beverage.
Unicorn Cake Pop is back
The enchanting Unicorn Cake Pop returns, featuring creamy vanilla cake mixed with confetti sprinkles, dipped in white chocolaty icing and decorated with a charming unicorn face.
