Starbucks To Release 'Unicorn Frappuccino'

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO/AP) – Turns out, unicorns do exist. In Frappuccino form, at least.

Introducing, the Unicorn Frappuccino.

Starbucks will be releasing the pink drink from April 19 – 23, according to CBS Detroit.

The chain says the drink was inspired by the trend of unicorn-themed food online and starts out purple with a sweet and fruity taste.

A CBS Detroit article said the blended crème drink will be made with sweet pink powder, mango syrup and a sour blue drizzle, topped whipped cream and pink and blue powder. It changes to pink and tart after it's stirred to mix in a blue drizzle. A 12-ounce size contains 280 calories.

The price has not been released.

The drink will be available only at participating Starbucks in the U.S., Canada and Mexico.

Earlier this month, Seattle-based Starbucks also introduced a "Pink Drink" made with coconut milk and topped with strawberries. The company said it had previously been a customized drink that enjoyed "fandom online."
