Fans got their hands on new Starbucks x Miffy merchandise before sunrise
Miffy fans lined up before sunrise, bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, to get their hands on Starbucks’ new Miffy.
The Unicorn Frappuccino is coming back to Starbucks.
Starbucks says the popular, colorful drink first debuted as a limited-time product in 2017, and most recently appeared at this year’s Coachella music festival. The drink made waves in 2017 with its pink and blue swirls, color changes, and “unicorn dust” topping.
The Unicorn Frappuccino will return to Starbucks Coffeehouses later this summer for one weekend only, but the company has not yet announced a date.
Starbucks recently discontinued its summer menu
Starbucks’ summer menu will go on sale May 12 and will be available for a limited time, according to the coffee chain. The menu welcomes the return of the new Tropical Butterfly Refresher, the new Horchata Frappuccino Blend Beverage, and the Iced Horchata Shake Espresso.
According to Starbucks, Tropical Butterfly Refresher features guava and passionfruit flavors, as well as bursts of mango-pineapple-flavored pearls. To finish off the drink, a splash of butterfly pea flower infusion is added to effectively create the color of the drink.
Starbucks says the drink can be customized with lemonade or coconut milk, as well as customers’ preferred levels of caffeine and B vitamins.
Iced Horchata Shake Espresso features Starbucks Blonde espresso and horchata syrup, blended with the nuttiness of cinnamon, vanilla and toasted rice, shaken with ice and finished with oat milk.
The summer menu also features new unicorn cake pops, which are vanilla cake mixed with confetti sprinkles, drizzled with white chocolate icing and decorated with unicorn faces.
