Disneyland Starbucks Just Debuted a Maleficent Frappuccino
Katherine Pendrill — September 10, 2019 — Lifestyle
While the limited-edition Unicorn Frappuccino may have captured hearts (and Instagram likes), the new Maleficent Frappuccino is the next best thing. Created as part of the 'Halloween Time' menu at Disneyland Resort's Starbucks, the new drink puts a Disney twist on one of Starbucks' most iconic drinks.
The new Maleficent Frappuccino is a festive Halloween beverage that is inspired by the Disney movie of the same name. The Frappuccino itself is bright pink, just like the character's purple robes. To achieve the unique color, the drink combines a vanilla bean créme base with blueberry juice and pieces of diced dragonfruit. The whole thing is then topped with matcha green whipped cream for that extra spooky Halloween touch.
For those looking for something lighter, Disneyland Resort's Starbucks is also serving up a tea-based lemonade drink called Dr. Facilier Elixir drink, which is inspired by 'The Princess and the Frog.'
