It is summer! That used to mean lounging on a beachfront somewhere while enjoying a refreshing drink. But not anymore. For the last two years, we have been staying home whenever possible or going on a socially distanced work/errand run.

This year, as we continue on our quest of maintaining a sense of normal, Starbucks brings summer right to our doorsteps with their newest offerings starting April 20.

For drinks they have these four new refreshing iced Teavana beverages: the Sunshine Pineapple Oolong made with real golden pineapple chunks, pineapple sauce, and a honey cold foam; the Sunshine Peach Oolong with refreshing peach juice and white peach jelly chunks finished with honey cold foam; the Triple Golden Monkey layered with malty oatmilk, silky tea foam and tea-flavored cookie crumbs; the Cocoa Golden Monkey that has a decadent mocha sauce. All four new Teavana beverages come in limited edition reusable cups.

These are available for only P175 each if you get it in store or via drive-thru, 195 via Grab.

Given any other global circumstance, people would be flocking by this time of the year to Japan in anticipation of spring. But since air travel may not be the best idea, at least not for the next few months, let’s go with the next best thing.

This February, Starbucks embraces the changing of the season with new favorites inspired by the sweet-smelling peach blossom – the Pink Peach Blossom Cream Frappuccino. This has a peach jelly infusion in the cream base and pink flower meringue topping that tastes as delightful as it looks. There’s also the Chocolate Black Tea Peach Blossom Cream Frappuccino that blends the aromatic black tea, creamy chocolate, and tart pink peach sauce to make an indulgent spring in a cup!

The Lunar Festival of 2020 ushers in the Year of the Rat. Believers of the Chinese Zodiac believe that it means a year of vitality and intelligence. I am not too sure about that, but what I am sure of is that the Lunar New Year goodies from Starbucks PH are super adorable and a must-have especially if you started collecting last year.

Maintaining the same style as 2019’s Year of the Pig merchandise, this year’s LNY collection features the cute and playful rat, amongst blossoming cherry and orange trees in bold red, gold, and Starbucks green pantones.

A LNY Card design is also available at an initial activation load of P300. All LNY items are available starting January 7, 2020.

 

It is that time of the year for Starbucks planners, travel organizers, Toffee Nut Crunch Latte, Peppermint Mocha, Starbucks Christmas Cards, and a partridge in a pear tree. And while other brands have the same products out, collecting Starbucks goodies during the holiday season has become a tradition among Filipinos. So without further adieu, let’s begin with our annual list of things to haul from our neighborhood Starbucks branches.
