The new line up includes the Honey Oat Latte, the Pistachio Latte, and the Pistachio Frappuccino® Blended Beverage. The honey oat latte combines the delicious taste of Starbucks Blonde Espresso with honey, piecing the beverage together with a Toasted Honey topping, "a tribute to all things sweet and salty." The Pistachio Latte, on the other hand, features Espresso and milk to create a creamy and comforting beverage that brings out notes of brown butter and real pistachio. Lastly, the Pistachio Frappuccino® Blended Beverage is made with coffee, milk, ice, and finished with whipped cream and a rich brown-buttery topping. Since Canadians overall are consuming less dairy, oat beverages have become a rapidly accepted [dairy alternative](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nondairy-milk). Starbucks Canada is catering to this emerging consumer lifestyle with delicious new options that incorporate the flavors its consumers adore with the ingredients they desire.
