While Starbucks always seems to have a creative new beverage up its sleeves, now it is handing over the reins to its staff to serve up their very own 'Barista Originals.' With recipes submitted by Starbucks staff from across the country, the new drinks showcase the creative talents of the chain's many baristas.
The Barista Originals are fall drink recipes developed by baristas from Starbucks locations across the US. After receiving the submissions, the Starbucks team tested 20 different recipes and selected their five favorites. The winning drinks include a Harry Potter-inspired Butter Beer Frappuccino and a Pumpkin Cheesecake Cold Brew.
For fans looking to get their hands on some of the delicious Barista Originals, the drinks will be served over two weekends in October at participating Starbucks locations.
