The Starbucks Spicy Menu Has Swicy Refreshers and More
Michael Hemsworth — April 15, 2024 — Lifestyle
The Starbucks spicy menu has made its debut from the cafe brand to build on the popularity of swicy (sweet and spicy) foods and provide patrons with an alternative way to enjoy the flavor profile.
The menu includes the new Spicy Lemonade Refreshers in Spicy Dragonfruit, Spicy Pineapple and Spicy Strawberry flavors, which are each crafted with Starbucks Spicy Chili Powder Blend. The result is a series of refreshing beverages that don't skimp on sweetness or spiciness, while also offering a boost of caffeine to boot.
The Starbucks spicy menu also introduces the Spicy Cream Cold Foam that's made with a blend of the brand's classic cold foam and the aforementioned Spicy Chili Powder Blend. The various menu items are only being offered at participating locations in the US for a limited time.
