If you were a fan of the original Mocha Coconut Frappuccino from [Starbucks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-starbucks-spring-menu), you have a lot to be happy about. The ubiquitous coffee chain recently announced they will be bringing back the beloved [blended coffee beverage](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frappuccino-lite).

The [limited edition offer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/starbucks-summer-menu) will be available in participating Canadian and American stores starting July 23rd until supplies run out. The frozen caffeinated drink consists of Starbucks coffee, mocha sauce, coconut syrup, milk and ice with a topping of whipped cream, chocolate drizzle and toasted coconut flakes. Stores will also be selling a bottled version of the Mocha Coconut Frappuccino year-round.

The summery drink can be easily modified to be slightly healthier when customers opt for nonfat or soy milk, sugar-free Skinny Mocha syrup, little or no whip cream and choosing other light options.
