Starbucks Canada is introducing three new bright and cheerful beverages – Iced Guava Passionfruit Drink, Iced Pineapple Matcha Drink, and Iced Golden Ginger Drink. I love trying new Starbucks drinks that are available for limited time only, so we ordered ahead of time on their app for pick up.
You can also get these items delivered too via UberEats.
Iced Guava Passionfruit Drink
This smooth and creamy caffeine-free beverage combines flavours of guava, passionfruit, pineapple and ginger, hand-shaken with coconutmilk and ice.
This drink is the best one out of the three options. The pineapple shines through a bit more to add to the guava and passionfruit. There is definitely a lot of different fruits in this drink that compete with each other.
Iced Pineapple Matcha Drink
Made with premium matcha green tea with flavours of pineapple and ginger, shaken with coconutmilk and ice.
I didn’t like this drink with the pineapple or coconutmilk beverage. It felt very tangy and diluted.
Iced Golden Ginger Drink
This caffeine-free beverage features ginger, pineapple and turmeric flavours, shaken with coconutmilk and ice.
This is my least favourite drink. It’s a good combination of flavours, but it didn’t really come together. The coconutmilk beverage just didn’t give it a creamy mouthfeel.
Final Thoughts
All of the new Summer drinks were a let down. I wouldn’t recommend any of them. They are bring back old favourites, including the S’mores, Mocha Cookie Crumble and Caramel Ribbon Crunch Frappuccinos. Those are definitely more of my version of Summer drinks.
