Get your head in the cloud with the new Blue Raspberry Cloud Creme Frappuccino

Johannesburg, South Africa - Starbucks, the world-renowned coffee company, will launch its latest addition to its Frappuccino line-up, the limited time only Blue Raspberry Cloud Creme Frappuccino. The highly anticipated new drink was unveiled at an exclusive event held at Starbucks Melrose Arch on March 22, 2023.

The Blue Raspberry Cloud Creme Frappuccino is a refreshing and delicious blend of blue raspberry powder, milk, and our trademarked Frappuccino Crème base, topped with a velvety cloud of whipped cream and a sprinkling of blue sugar crunch sprinkles. The combination of tart and sweet flavours is sure to delight Starbucks customers looking for a unique and satisfying Frappuccino experience.

"We are thrilled to introduce our Blue Raspberry Cloud Creme Frappuccino to our customers in South Africa," said Ishan Natalie, Starbucks South Africa's lead Black Apron and Coffee Master. "This Frappuccino is the perfect blend of fruity and creamy flavours, making it an ideal treat for any time of day. This whimsical beverage looks like a warm and sunny day, with layers of clouds, but has a surprising delicate flavour of raspberry. We invite our customers to indulge in the fun and try it for themselves at any Starbucks location."

Media attendees at the exclusive launch event were able to sample the Blue Raspberry Cloud Creme Frappuccino first-hand, and the response was overwhelmingly positive.

The Blue Raspberry Cloud Creme Frappuccino will be available at all Starbucks locations in South Africa from March 23, 2023. Customers can order it in-store or online via UberEats and MrD.
