Starbucks Launches Three Summer Limited Drinks Including 'Sweet Melon Blended'

[Asia Economy Reporter Choi Saeng-hye] Starbucks Coffee Korea announced that from the 14th until September 7th, it will introduce three summer beverages featuring fruit, including the 'Sweet Melon Blended.'

The 'Sweet Melon Blended' offers fresh pieces of domestically grown melon harvested from melon farms nationwide, allowing customers to enjoy the sweet taste of melon and hydration simultaneously. The 'Sweety Grapefruit & Lime Blended' is made with sweety grapefruit and lime, providing a citrus flavor and refreshing sensation.

The 'Blonde Summer Latte' is a latte beverage made with blonde espresso, topped with summer float cream similar to ice cream and orange syrup, allowing it to be enjoyed like a dessert. Along with the launch of the 'Blonde Summer Latte,' Starbucks has expanded blonde espresso beverages to about 1,200 stores after initially introducing them in 200 stores last April, reflecting the diverse preferences of customers seeking their own coffee tastes.

In line with the recent home cafe trend, Starbucks will also release the Rwanda Blonde Roast, an African coffee bean well-suited for iced coffee, to create cool and refreshing iced coffee beverages.
