Starbucks Brings Back Nostalgic Unicorn Drink

Get ready for a magical return as Starbucks brings back the iconic Unicorn Frappuccino blended beverage for a limited one-weekend engagement this summer. Available globally from August 15 to August 16, this nostalgic drink promises a sweet and tart combination.

The legendary Unicorn Frappuccino, first released in 2017, features a creamy mango base with a tangy blue drizzle and is topped with whipped cream and a colorful crumble. Its distinctive pink and blue swirls captivated social media users upon its initial launch and its brief reappearance at Coachella earlier this year.

While many customers are eagerly anticipating reliving fond memories associated with the drink, its return may stir mixed emotions among baristas. Employees who worked during its original run in 2017 shared their challenges with crafting the elaborate beverage, with some humorously advising customers against ordering it.

This comeback follows the recent reintroduction of the S'mores Frappuccino, which returned to menus on July 1 for a limited time due to high demand from both customers and staff. Starbucks also introduced new S'mores-themed beverages alongside its return.
