Football running back, Marshawn Lynch, just collaborated with the coffee giant to create the newest caffeinated Starbucks beverage -- the 'Beast Mode Frappuccino.' The name of the drink corresponds with the Seahawks' player's clothing brand -- a name meant to inspire athleticism and a winning spirit.
The blended beverage is made with a double mocha base, a touch of mint and cream and topped with a spiral of whipped cream. The final touches on the drink are a drizzle of purple berry and a dash of matcha powder -- all of this plus enough caffeine and protein powder to power a work out of any kind.
While the Beast Mode Frappuccino may not appeal to the same young female demographic the pumpkin spice latte is so famously connected to, it will draw in a new male crowd as an alternative to a protein shake.
