Starburst get me all nostalgic, because they were one of my favorite candies growing up. I have fond memories of making a fresh tear into one of those bright yellow packages before the lights dimmed at the movie theater to pull out all of the pink wrappers. Chocolate has never been my jam, but I do love anything that's strawberry flavored.
Back in the day, we just had Starburst Original. Kids these days have an endless number of ways to get their Starburst fix, including Starburst Jell-O, Starburst gum, and Starburst yogurt. But they don't realize how lucky they are to have the option of buying an entire package of only the pink color.
You can't eat it, but diehard Starburst fans can even buy candles that smell like the soft taffy candy, which means you have the option of making your entire house smell like an actual candy store.
Fellow Starburst lovers, have I got some big news for you! Instagrammer @totallythebombdotcom just revealed a magical new Starbucks secret menu item, which tastes exactly like the strawberry flavor: the new "Pink Drink."
Thankfully, she shared how to order the peachy beverage on her website, too. First, you order a Venti sized pink drink (strawberry acai, coconut milk and strawberries). Next, request a special addition: two pumps of vanilla and two pumps of white mocha. Finally, enjoy over ice.
Do you think it would be strawberry overload if I ordered a shareable size of all-pink Starburst from Target to enjoy with my very first "Pink Drink?"
