With the spring season rapidly approaching, Starbucks Canada is "giving Canadians another reason to celebrate the arrival of spring" new seasonal menu for the season.
Starbucks Canada is adding new oat-based beverages to its menu including the new Iced Brown Sugar Oatmilk Shaken Espresso and the Canadian-exclusive Brown Sugar Oat Americano, providing fans with more plant-based beverage options. The new Iced Brown Sugar Oat Shaken Espresso boasts Starbucks Blonde® espresso, brown sugar, and cinnamon, mixed with ice and topped with oat beverage. The Brown Sugar Oat Americano, on the other hand, is under 200 calories (for a grande-size) and features Starbucks Blonde® Espresso, brown sugar syrup and water, topped with steamed oat beverage and cinnamon.
Alongside these plant-based options, Starbucks Canada also introduced the new Iced Shaken Espresso–made with rich, chilled espresso with a touch of 2 percent milk–and the new Artisan Charcuterie Snack Box–featuring cacciatore salami, fontinello cheese, and breadsticks. Returning menu items include the Lemon Cake Pop and the Confetti Sugar Cookie.
