The new drinks include the Summer-Berry Starbucks Refreshers Beverage, Summer-Berry Lemonade Starbucks Refreshers Beverage and Summer Skies Drink. They feature a blend of raspberry, blueberry and blackberry combined with water, lemonade or coconut milk over a layer of raspberry-flavored pearls.

“When creating these drinks, Starbucks beverage developers wanted to add a refreshing pop of flavor and color. To do so, they drew inspiration from drinks around the world, especially East Asian beverages with boba or pearls that have been popular for decades – and the new raspberry flavored pearls were born,” the company said in a news release.

Coffee drink returns to menus, new desserts, new drinkware

Starbucks is also bringing back its White Chocolate Macadamia Cold Brew for a second year. It’s also adding Orange Cream Cake Pops and Pineapple Cloud Cakes to its pastry offerings.

And no summer is complete with a new accessory. Starbucks has also introduced a new vibrant drinkware line for the summer.
