Starbucks (Parkway Parade)

8 bucks for this stuff is insane, but so are the new limited edition coffee spheres.
.
Ps. Can ignorant food bloggers stop calling them boba pearls? They are not solid tapioca pearls found in bubble tea, but mini ikura-sized spheres that release delightful bursts of coffee when you bite into them (a la ferran adria?)

Pps. Don't judge me for this caramel monstrosity, I usually drink my coffee hot, in espresso form. But coffee spheres!

For the past few months, Starbucks has been launching the "Show Your Flavor" Frappuccino series, with each drink available for a couple of weeks on a limited promotional basis. Just today, they came up with these two new flavours to entice the fans.

The main difference with these two from the rest is that Starbucks introduced the light milk foam in replacement of whipped cream to complement the taste of their new drinks, so don't assume that they had purposely given less cream on top.

So the Granola Dark Mocha Frappuccino is a blend of mocha with dark chocolate sauce and cereal powder, so every sip tastes as though you are having a chilled oats drink. Very filling if this is an after-meal beverage.

On the other hand, the Acai Mixed Berry Yogurt Frappuccino tastes more refreshing, thanks to the bursting berry pearls at the bottom of the drink. On the whole, I prefer the latter more, but I predict that the drink will be selling fast because the pearls will probably be the limiting factor.

No one can really tell if the milk foam is too fattening to be added to the drink, but since it's a limited time offer, just whack it.

This is the red cranberry with grapefruit foam. I would have to say, it's interesting, but on the sour side. Try it today. @starbuckssg #sparkling #cranberry #juice #evening #starbucks #starbuckssg
