Say Hello to the Newest Summer Starbucks Drinks

While we’re still drooling over the winner of Starbucks’ #FanFavorites Frappuccino competition (Caramel Cocoa Cluster, how did we ever live without you?), it turns out the decadent menu is just getting sweeter. From now until September 7, try one of the store’s newest refreshing treats: Teavana’s Shaken Iced Mango Black Tea Lemonade, the Strawberry Acai Refresher, and Orange Cream Soda. Be still our hearts. 

Intrigued and overly excited like us? Read on for the newest menu item descriptions with drool-inducing photos sourced straight from the Starbucks website.

Teavana Shaken Iced Mango Black Tea Lemonade

This newest tea is a blend of mango and passion fruit flavors, black tea, and you guessed it, lemonade. If that doesn’t scream summer, we don’t know what does. Teavana teas are already mouth-watering, so we’ll more than welcome this new rendition. Shaken tea is the best tea, after all. 

Orange Cream Fizzio Handcrafted Soda

While Starbucks has yet to release images of the extremely new and elusive Orange Cream Soda, here’s an image of one of their pre-existing exclusive sodas in Golden Ginger Ale. There’s one catch to this new, magnificently bubbly flavor—it will be exclusive to Starbucks’ Fizzio hand-crafted sodas stores. The new soda brings back nostalgia for our childhood adoration of creamsicles, consisting of vanilla, floral, and tangy tastebud-loving flavors. Best of all? The drink is completely dairy free (despite it’s creamy aura) and only 100 calories! Hopefully you’ll love this little guy way more than the old Spiced Root Beer flavor it’s replacing. 

Strawberry Acai Refresher

The Cool Lime Refresher is already bae, and the Very Berry Hibiscus makes any sweltering day worthwhile. Now, say hello to your newest go-to, the Strawberry Acai Refresher. Made with cooling green tea and strawberry, passion fruit, and Acai flavors, we’re more excited than sad that this new drink is replacing the old Valencia Orange Refresher (which definitely won’t compare to this sweet pink dream). 

Brb, sprinting to Starbucks.
