Starbucks invites its customers to "fall in love" with its newest beverage additions.

The drinks were previously released in 2024 for the Valentine's Menu.
Additionally, the brand is introducing Blackberry Sage Refreshers in three variants. Brian Niccol, CEO of the brand, is spearheading the Back To Starbucks to elevate customer experience. Customers can expect new changes, including a potential 30% reduction to the food and beverage menu. Until then, you can enjoy the limited-edition beverages added to the February menu.

Starbucks is all set for Valentine's Day with its limited-edition beverages in the USA and Canada. Two customer-favorite drinks that are being reintroduced for a limited time are:
- Chocolate-covered Strawberry Creme Frappuccino: A delight for those who "enjoy cold beverages" in the winter. The drink blends strawberry puree and frappuccino chips and is topped with "whipped cream and mocha drizzle."
- Chocolate Hazelnut Cookie Cold Brew: Cold Brew + Vanilla syrup and topped with hazelnut-flavored foam and cookie crumbles.
Customers can also purchase the Blackberry Sage Refreshers in three varieties. In a press release, Billy Alterie, lead beverage developer, talked about the newest launch and noted that even in the winter season, customers want "refreshing and balanced" beverages.
The brand revealed it's the first time they have paired a "berry flavor with a herb." Alterie invited customers to a visualization of the drink and noted,
“Imagine you’re walking through a garden you’re smelling fresh herbs and then berries."
He added,
“That’s really what you’re getting with this beverage – a balance of subtle notes of sage and sweet blackberry flavors.”
The variants include:
- Blackberry Sage Refresher: Features sweet blackberry, sage, and green coffee extract.
- Blackberry Sage Lemonade Refresher: Includes the same ingredients as the Blackberry Sage Refresher with a dash of lemonade.
- Midnight Drink: The blackberry refresher is infused with coconut milk.
Customers can also purchase new merchandise, including pixelated mugs and tumblers, for Valentine's Day. Additionally, customers who bring their "clean personal cups" can get a $0.10 discount on their beverage at select participating stores.
Starbucks is keeping up with the Valentine's Day spirit. The brand has introduced new beverages to the menu for a limited time. While there may be a slow discontinuation of items to make the menu simpler, customers can purchase the season favorites.
