If you prefer your coffee in the form of a sugary treat and also love campfire treats, Starbucks created their limited edition S'mores Frappuccino just for you, just in time for summer. Essentially your favorite chocolaty marshmallow snack in beverage form, the drink will be available starting April 28, 2015.
The S'more Frappuccino has a layer of whipped cream with marshmallow infused into it and then another layer of chocolate sauce. The bulk of the blended beverage consists of "graham, coffee, milk and ice" plus another layer of marshmallow whipped cream with graham cracker crumble for topping. Is your mouth watering yet?
Well worth the wait, the blended coffee concoction follows the recent Starbucks birthday cake frap which was only around for five days.
