Starbucks needs no introduction and it is no secret that Starbucks is always moving ahead in terms of bringing new mixes and innovations to the table especially with their beverages. They have come up with a bunch of new beverage ideas and even though not all of them could impress people, just the fact that they thought of such combination of beverages is commendable.

Let’s take a look at few of these unique beverage ideas from Starbucks

Churro Frappuccino

This drink took birth in Latin America. In India, Churros aren’t that famous of a snack but recently we see a few places making these and I was kind of hoping for this to come to the Indian Starbucks menu as well. Sadly, it didn’t. Anyway, this is obviously a dessert-based drink. This had come as a part of Starbucks secret menu. Not sure what this is but it did get me thinking if India too has a secret menu of its own.

Lemon Ginger Fizzio with Mango Jelly

This drink sounds too heavy and not something I would want to try. But this is my personal opinion. This was invented in South Korea. This soda-based drink comes with real citrus-flavored fruit juice, ginger, and rosemary. All of which apparently mix perfectly with mango jelly.

Avocado Yogurt Blend

I actually did try this, and I am not a fan. This too took birth in South Korea, which proves how imaginative and creative Koreans are actually. An avocado-inspired drink that actually looks like avocado. It definitely looks really cool! it’s also a seasonal drink.

Red Bean Green Tea Frappuccino

This originated in China. This red bean drink exclusive to China and Asia Pacific was first conceptualized in 2012. Starbucks describes it as a blended beverage most striking for its “sweetened whole kernels of red beans scooped on top of a Green Tea Frappuccino.” I like Red Bean but I don’t know how it would taste with green tea.

Sakura Blossom Cream Latte

This one is actually really pretty and sounds nice too. This was originated in Japan. This is obviously inspired by Cherry Blossoms. This drink features “Sakura sauce made with cherry petals, condensed milk, and white bean paste.” To finish it off, it’s topped with “pink shaved chocolate and pink rice crackers scattered on maple-flavored whipped cream. I think of all the beverages that I have mentioned here, this definitely would top my list of “should try”.

What do you guys think of these Starbucks beverage list?
