Starbucks has two new Frappuccino flavors — Blackberries & Creme and Strawberry Shortcake. But if you’re a chronic procrastinator, you may miss out on them because both will be available only through September 7 in the U.S. and Canada. (They started being sold on August 27.)
The Blackberries & Crème Frappuccino has a blend of blackberries, vanilla bean, milk, and ice that’s topped with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon dolce topping. The Strawberry Shortcake Frappuccino has a blend of strawberries, strawberry juice, vanilla bean, hazelnut syrup, milk, and ice with whipped cream on top.

The Strawberry Shortcake tastes Just like its namesake, wish it was sticking around !
Honestly, all the ingredients they use in it I believe are normal, non-seasonal stuff. I’m sure you can still get it after the “end date”. If not by the name it goes by now, just remember what ‘s in it and they can do a “custom creme frappucino” for you.
The blackberry one was really good! Mild blackberry flavor, milky and kind of earthy but a good light berry flavor , and that cinnamon sprinkle really makes it. Doesn’t taste overly sweet even though it has a ton of sugar.
Good thing I had a free drink, because the Blackberries and Creme Frappe was pointless. I poured it out. There was no cinnamon anything on top, no blackberry flavor, no vanilla flavor, just sweet. And a ton of blackberry seeds. So disappointed. Had my foster kittens not needed to get home and cleaned up, I would have gone back in and asked if it was supposed to taste bland and pointless. The first time I’ve had a Starbucks disappointment.
honestly i couldnt drink the strawberry shortcake one. maybe it’s cause anything of that flavor tastes like that. i threw it out after drinking only half of it because it just wasnt for me. and i spent nearly $4.50 on it! probably shouldve gotten the caramel macchiato.. mm
