To celebrate the impending spring season, Starbucks has released an exclusive Honey Blossom Creme Frappuccino in Hong Kong. With its sweet ingredients and bright pink hue, the new drink is an delicious way to welcome warmer weather.
The new Honey Blossom Creme Frappuccino is the latest drink from Starbucks Hong Kong. The base of the drink consists of a blended strawberry cream smoothie, while the top features whipped cream, a drizzle of honey, dried strawberries, and pieces of crunchy pink puffed rice. The new springtime drink is comparable to last year's Sakura Blossom Frappuccino, which boasted a similar floral pink hue.
While the drink is exclusive to Starbucks' Hong Kong locations, North American fans can still enjoy the regular Strawberries and Cream Frappuccino.
