10 Starbucks Drinks That You Never Knew Existed

If caramel macchiatos are starting to feel a little Snoozy and you’re running out of patience waiting for the PSL to come back, then it may be a sign that you need to switch up your Starbucks go to. Before you panic, hear me out. Enter: Secret Starbucks menu. That’s right; we have got your back, and when it has to do with Starbucks, you’ll never have to ask us twice. 

From Banana Split to Tiramisu, we have found it all. Here are 10 Starbucks drinks you need to try that you never even knew existed.

Banana Split Frappuccino

With summer right around the corner, this banana split frappuccino will get you in the mood for late summer drives and ice cream. Plus, it is SO good. Here are the deets: Ask your barista to make a Strawberries and Creme Frappuccino and to blend it with vanilla bean powder, java chips, and one banana. Top it with whipped cream and mocha, and caramel drizzles. Bon appetite! 

Orange Drink

Pull out the nostalgia because the orange drink is going to have you flying back to your childhood. Remember the peach ring gummies that made your teeth tickle? Me too, and I am happy to announce this drink tastes just like that. To order, ask for a venti iced half-sweet black tea lemonade combined with peach tea and a splash of coconut milk. YUM! 

Baby Yoda Frappuccino

Yes, the Baby Yoda craze has made it to Starbucks, and we are here for it! For all my Star Wars-loving, Starbucks drinking friends, this one is for you. 

Here’s how to order this adorable drink.

Order a matcha green tea Frappuccino with caramel drizzle on the cup. Ask for it to be topped with whipped cream, more caramel syrup, and caramel crunch topping. With just one sip, this drink will take you to a galaxy far far away. Lightsaber optional. 

Chocolate-Covered Strawberry Drink

Just because Valentine’s Day has passed doesn’t mean that we have to give up our favorite treat. I’m talking about chocolate-covered strawberries. That’s right, you heard us correctly. For an ombre and delicious secret drink that’s as indulgent as it is Instagram-friendly, order this delightful and festive drink. Here’s what you’ll need:

  • A Starbucks barista (Duh)
  • Venti cold brew with two pumps of raspberry
  • Top it off with some cold foam, strawberry puree, and mocha drizzle.

 Yep, it’s as simple as that. Go pick one up, and while you’re at it, get us one too! 

Cake Batter Frappuccino

You may be wondering how you’ve gone your whole Starbucks drinking life without knowing about the cake batter Frappuccino. Same. This secret menu item is delicious AF, and it’s super easy to make (and say over the intercom to your barista). Here’s how to order this fabulous drink.

Ask your barista for a Vanilla Bean Frappuccino with added almond flavoring. Out of our favorite Starbucks drinks, this one takes the cake. Next time you are at Starbucks, order this delicious treat! Add sprinkles when you are home for some extra fun. Cheers! 

Nutella Frappuccino

If you love Nutella, Stop scrolling. If you don’t like Nutella, then raise your standards-kidding! This Starbucks secret menu item tastes just like a spoon full of Nutella- or dare I say better. Heres what to ask for the next time you are in the drive-through. Start with a coffee frappuccino and ask your barista to add in some mocha sauce. Splash a few pumps of hazelnut syrup in it and then spiral some whipped cream to the top. This delicious drink will have you saying a Hazelnut-Hallelughiah! You can thank us later! 

Tiramisu Frappuccino

Are you feeling fancy? Then it’s time to get yourself a tiramisu frappuccino. This is not fake news. Start by ordering a coffee Frappuccino with a single pump of mocha sauce and a half pump each of caramel, vanilla, toffee-nut, and hazelnut syrup. Mix it all up and wah-lah. If you feel like a little more of an indulgence, then ask your barista to add a shot of espresso affogato. Watch and drool as they pour hot espresso over your blended, frozen drink, creating a creamy, dreamy Italian-style coffee treat. My mouth is watering already.

Cinnamon Roll Frappuccino

Imagine waking up to the sweet smell of freshly baked cinnamon rolls covered in cream cheese frosting. Doesn’t that sound doggone delightful? Well, we can’t give you that, but we have the next best thing. Enter: The super-secret cinnamon roll Frappuccino. Here’s how to order. Ask your barista for a vanilla bean frappuccino then add in two or more pumps of cinnamon dolce syrup. That’s all there is to this fun and delicious drink.

Blackberry Cobbler

We aren’t picky when it comes to pie, but when Starbucks is involved, that’s a whole other story. This Starbucks spin on our favorite blackberry cobbler is pure genius. GENIUS. Here’s what to get next time you are out ordering a drink. First, you will want to order a Vanilla Bean Crème Frappuccino Ask your barista to add White mocha syrup (2 pumps for venti, 1.5 for grande, and one pump for tall) then top it all off with fresh blackberries. That is all there is to it. Some may even call it easy as pie- sorry I had to.

Snickerdoodle Macchiato

Needless to say, we are a BIG fan of Starbucks snickerdoodle hot chocolate. What if I told you could get your snickerdoodle fix throughout the year and not just when holiday drinks are available? Here is how to incorporate the fan-favorite snickerdoodle cookie into your Starbucks drink. Here is the breakdown. You’ll need an iced caramel macchiato (on the flip side), 1 to 2 pumps of vanilla syrup, and 1 to 2 pumps of cinnamon dolce syrup. This is easy to make, delicious, and better than the caramel macchiato! 

For all the Starbucks lovers out there, we hope that this inspired you to try something new. Trust us. We know that you will love it!
