Coffee Brand Cookie Straws

The Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Cookie Straws are Limited-Edition

— August 14, 2018 — Lifestyle
The Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Cookie Straws have been unveiled by the brand as a new product for the retail market that will provide consumers with a treat to enjoy alongside their favorite hot drinks.

Spiced with the brand's signature blend of autumnal flavorings, the cookie straws consist of straw-shaped wafers that are lined with white chocolate that will melt as hot drinks are drawn through them. This will make for a decadent dessert to enjoy as the drink is consumed and could also be used as a plastic straw alternative for those looking to avoid the wasteful drinking aids.

The Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Cookie Straws will come in packs of 20 and have been announced alongside new flavored K-Cup coffee pods.
