Starbucks Now Offers an Teavana Iced Piña Colada Infusion
Riley von Niessen — July 25, 2017 — Lifestyle
In order to quench the summer thirst of its consumers, Starbucks recently launched its Teavana Iced Piña Colada Infusion, which is a twist on its popular Teavana Shaken Iced Pineapple Black Tea Infusion.
Although the drink doesn't contain rum like the classic tropical beverage does, it has all the creamy pineapple flavor that the original has due to its inclusion of coconut, black tea, and of course, pineapple.
While it's likely that the Teavana Iced Piña Colada Infusion will be most popular among consumers throughout the hotter months, it'll be available for purchase all year long -- setting it apart from the many seasonal beverages that the coffee chain often promotes. For now, the Teavana Iced Piña Colada Infusion will only be available from locations within Canada and the US.
