Starbucks reveals 2 new chilled drinks to cool down your summer


Starbucks is getting caffeinated up for a white-hot summer.

The coffee giant announced Tuesday that they have released two new drink flavors for their nationwide summer menu, reported National Restaurant News.

One of the refreshing treats Starbucks is now selling is the white chocolate macadamia cream cold brew which, depending on size, clocks in at between 170 and 330 calories.

Made with the java joint’s own cold brew, the beverage also includes macadamia syrup and is topped with white chocolate macadamia cream cold foam and toasted cookie crumbs.

“The smooth flavor profile of Starbucks cold brew combined with the nuttiness of macadamia flavor, creaminess of white chocolate flavored sauce in the cold foam, and salty cookie crumbs delivers the perfect balance of sweet and savory that customers love and offers a moment of summer fun with every sip,” said Senior Product Developer Matt Thornton in a statement.

The second option is the Chocolate Java Mint Frappuccino, which has about 340 calories in its smallest size and can reach 600 calories.

“Coffee and flavors of sweet chocolate and refreshing mint blended with rich Frappuccino chips for a smooth treat finished with a layer of mocha sauce,” reads the drink’s description, adding that the frozen treat is also topped with whipped cream and cookie crumbles.

Starbucks Product Manager Maureen Matthews told the outlet that the drink is a “new approach to the classic combination of mint and chocolate” in an effort to “create a blended coffee beverage that elicits nostalgia for one of our favorite summer treats.”

“The new white chocolate mint sauce is subtle and creamy, and when paired with the crunch of Frappuccino chips and a swirl of rich mocha, is reminiscent of mint chocolate chip ice cream poolside on a warm summer day,” continued Matthews.

In addition to their hot-day drinks, Starbucks introduced — for a limited time — a bumblebee cake pop and summer drinkware.

The coffee giant landed itself in a hot pot of water with caffeine lovers Monday after they announced that there will be an extra charge of $1 if the customers ask for no water in their popular fruity Refreshers drinks.

According to Starbucks, the change is due to the fact that specialty beverages require more ingredients if water is not used.

The chain also caught flack for its new olive oil-infused coffee drinks.

Several sippers have reported having stomach issues after tasting the not-so-sweet treats.
