Starbucks' new Cups of Kindness initiative was created in collaboration with Lady Gaga's Born This Way Foundation, and offers four special beverages – two of which are brand new for the Starbucks brand.
The two new Starbucks beverages include a Matcha Lemonade, which is made from ground Teavana matcha green tea and then mixed with lemonade. The second in the collection is called the Violet Drink, which is made from blackberries and the brand's Very Berry Hibiscus Refreshers. The other two beverages in the Cups of Kindness collection include the brand's Pink Drink and Ombre Pink Drink.
For each of the beverages purchased in this collection, 25 cents will go to the Born This Way Foundation.
