The Seattle-based coffee giant is bringing both fruity beverages to menus permanently.
Starbucks recently started process two new , prim up - for - summertime beverages , thePineapple Passionfruit Refreshers and the Paradise Drink . Both were inspired by summer popsicle and passionfruit knock off ice , but the latter imbibe ishand - shakenwith coconut tree milk for a creamy tropical destination .
And while the Pineapple Passionfruit Refreshers and Paradise Drink , which each include real diced Ananas comosus pieces , fathom flat off of a beach resort menu , we had to adjudicate the new options for ourselves to see if the taste oppose the vibes .
When can you get the Pineapple Passionfruit Refreshers and Paradise Drink? How long will they be available?
The Pineapple Passionfruit Refreshers and Paradise Drink hit computer menu on June 13 . Though both drinks screaming summertime , they ’ll actually stay on on the menu permanently .
What do the Pineapple Passionfruit Refreshers taste like? How is it different from the Paradise Drink?
Naturally , the Pineapple Passionfruit Refreshers is a tangy , yield - advancing blend of passionfruit and ananas juice , though the latter of the two flavors in its name is the more obvious . The diced pineapple adds an exciting layer of grain , too . Overall , it ’s sweet , but not too overpowering . Starbucks managed to equilibrate the sourish juices cautiously and not overwhelm your taste bud . The Paradise Drink , meanwhile , is a creamy take on the tropical trend and is almost redolent of a piña colada , thanks to the add-on of coconut milk , which waste the tangy visibility of the pineapple and passionfruit .
Which is better?
The question is subjective and entirely dependant on your personal preference . With that say , I ’m a fan of the Paradise Drink . It tastes like the kind of drinkable you ’d sip flat from a pineapple on the beaches of Cabo . It ’s mellifluous , a tiny bit tart , and grab onto your taste buds with the coconut Milk River ’s creamy finish .
