Starbucks summertime drinks

Summer. Hair gets lighter. Skin gets darker. Water gets warmer. Drinks get colder. Music gets louder. Nights get longer. Life gets better. 

 

The school year is coming to an end and summer is about to start up. Each year when summer begins Starbucks features a variety of their summer drinks that people will die for! On hot, sunny days people are most likely going to be at Starbucks to get a refreshing drink to enjoy. Below you will find a list of a variety of delicious summer drink options!

 

The Pink Drink: Our crisp, Strawberry Acai with its accents of passion fruit, is combined with creamy Coconut milk. It’s a fruity and refreshing sip of spring, no matter what time of year.

 

The Caramel Mattachiato: Freshly steamed milk with vanilla-flavored syrup is marked with espresso and topped with caramel drizzle for an oh-so-sweet finish.

 

The White Mocha Frapp: White chocolate roast coffee, milk and ice get together for what might be the best thing that happens to you all day. Oh, and there’s whipped cream on top.

 

The Ulta Caramel Frapp: Dark caramel coffee is enveloped between layers of whipped cream that’s infused with cold brew, white chocolate and dark caramel. And on each layer of whipped cream sits a dollop of dark caramel sauce. These layers ensure each sip is as good as the last; all the way to the end.

 

The Triple Chocolate Mocha Frapp: Mocha coffee is enveloped between layers of whipped cream that’s infused with cold brew, white chocolate mocha and dark caramel. On each layer of whipped cream is a dollop of rich dark mocha sauce. These layers ensure each sip is as good as the last; all the way to the end.

 

Other Starbucks Drinks I Recommend:

Green Tea: Green tea is blended with mint, lemongrass and lemon verbena then lightly sweetened and given a good shake. Light and oh-so-refreshing.

Sunset Refresher: Lime base, lemonade, lime slices, and ice topped with black tea. When finished, the drink will have an ombré appearance that makes it totally picture-worthy!

Very Berry Refresher: Real fruit juice and whole blackberries shaken with green coffee extract for a boost of natural energy, served over ice.

S’mores Frappuccino: Marshmallow infused whipped cream, milk chocolate sauce, a creamy blend of vanilla, coffee, milk and ice are finished off with more marshmallow whipped cream and a graham cracker crumble.

Iced Caffe Latte: Our dark, rich espresso is combined with milk and served over ice. A perfect milk forward cool down.
