Starbucks 2023 Summer Menu Is Brimming With Exciting Additions Including Signature Cold Brews

Starbucks recently added a new set of frozen drinks that are insanely enticing and refreshing to their 2023 summer menu. Starbucks Refreshers were first introduced to the menu in 2012. It has added some brand-new drinks and treats infused with lemonade and coconut milk. "Our customers and partners (baristas) have creatively customized their beverages, such as adding coconut milk, lemonade, or blending with ice," said Matt Thornton, senior beverage developer at Starbucks while announcing the Starbucks 2023 Summer Menu. 

The Refreshing Additions

Frozen Pineapple Passionfruit Lemonade

One of the three icy drinks for this summer takes you to the beach vacation you badly need. The sweet and tangy flavors of lemon and diced pineapple will instantly remind you of a pina colada. 

Frozen Strawberry Açai Lemonade

It's a strawberry lemonade with a twist. The drink made with real strawberries and drizzled with strawberry puree is one of the exciting additions to the Starbucks 2023 summer menu. However, it's made with a coconut milk base. It is your perfect companion on a hot summer afternoon. If you do pick this one, know that it gives you 140 calories. Enjoy!

Frozen Mango Dragonfruit Lemonade

This drink is made with small chunks of dragonfruit and an overall flavor of mango. The taste is perfectly balanced and refreshing. This drink is a perfect choice if you are craving something sweet but not very heavy.

Cold Brews and Cake

Apart from these, there's also White Chocolate Macadamia Cream Cold Brew, which is a fresh take on their signature cold brew topped with white chocolate macadamia cream and froth, with toasted cookie crumbles, drizzled with chocolate macadamia syrup. Another new item added to the treat section of the Starbucks 2023 summer menu is the Bumblebee Cake Pop. It's a piece of vanilla cake dipped in smooth buttercream and yellow chocolate icing. 

The new items are already available in all outlets in the US and Canada.
