Last week, rumors of the Starbucks' Tie Dye Frappuccino began to swirl and the internet freaked. And while, sure, it seems great and all, does it have actual donut crumbles in it? Because one of the chain's two new frapps does. According to IG snack scout @CandyHunting, Strawberry Donut and Cookies & Cream Frappuccinos are arriving in stores.
...Like now. A quick social media investigation revealed as much with fans 'gramming the sh*t out of these limited-edition drinks. There's just one teeny tiny problem. The Frapps are a U.K. exclusive.
I KNOW, I'M SORRY. But don't shoot the messenger here.
Per Starbucks, the Strawberry Donut features real donut crumbles, milk, and ice, blended with a layer of strawberry puree and freeze-dried strawberries on top. It's kind of got a whole Wimbledon strawberries and cream theme going, eh? The latter (and tbh, lesser) flavor, Cookies & Cream is pretty self explanatory. It's got cookies, milk, ice, and a cookies and cream topping.
While technically, neither is available in U.S. stores, there is this beautiful thing called the secret menu, and it's got the Cookies & Cream. It's not the perfect match, but it does the trick. Here's what to order: A Double Chocolate Chip Frappuccino with white mocha sauce topped with your choice of chocolate or regular whipped cream.
Satisfying that Strawberry Donut Frapp craving isn't quite as simple. The closest thing we've found on either menu (official and secret) is the Strawberries & Crème. If you're really determined, you could always sprinkle in your own donut crumbs? Desperate times call for desperate measures.
