Hot off the recent release of its Spicy Refreshers, Starbucks is officially welcoming summertime with its brand new line of Summer-Berry Refreshers Beverages featuring raspberry-flavoured pearls.
Yes, you read that right, Starbucks is getting into the boba game.
The new summery drinks include:
- Summer-Berry Starbucks Refreshers Beverage: a sweet and summery blend of raspberry, blueberry, and blackberry flavours shaken with ice and poured over a layer of new popping raspberry-flavoured pearls.
- Summer-Berry Lemonade Starbucks Refreshers Beverage: a combination of Summer-Berry Refreshers shaken with ice and lemonade and poured over a layer of popping raspberry-flavoured pearls.
- Summer Skies Drink: a creamy coconut Summer-Berry Refreshers beverage poured over ice and a layer of popping raspberry-flavoured pearls.
These new popping pearls will be a first for Starbucks in Canada and were inspired by Starbucks stores in Asia Pacific. These stores serve drinks like a Dark Caramel Coffee Sphere Frappuccino with bursting coffee spheres and a Peach Plum Pearls Oolong with plum-flavoured pearls.
Also new to the menu is the Pineapple Cloud Cake, which is layered with pineapple cream and pineapple spread, whole fruit pieces, and topped with a sweet drizzle.
Additionally, the White Chocolate Macadamia Cold Brew is returning to Canadian menus. It includes cold brew sweetened with macadamia syrup, topped with a white-chocolate macadamia cream cold foam, and finished with toasted cookie crumbles.
