Starbucks' newest holiday drink introduces its first-ever vegan holiday drink and the Iced Sugar Cookie Almondmilk Latte was inspired by the flavors of German spritzen cookies. German sugar cookies inspired this new beverage, which can be ordered iced or hot, made with sugar cookie-flavored syrup, a base of Starbucks Blonde Espresso, almond milk, and a sprinkling of red and green pieces on top.
Starbucks' Sara Bennett says, "The almond flavor from the almondmilk makes for a natural pairing with the nutty notes in Starbucks Blonde Espresso. We also wanted to harness the buttery and vanilla notes of the cookie, which you can pick up in the aroma from that first sip from the sugar cookie flavored syrup and sprinkles." This nostalgic drink promises to be a treat for all Starbucks fans, vegan or not.
