Your next visit to Starbucks is about to get magical as the company will be offering the first ever Starbucks Unicorn Frappuccino blended beverage. Yes, seriously – it’s like pretty pink, fluffy clouds, and magical rainbows all into one drink. This drink is real but as fleeting as a rainbow; the Starbucks Unicorn Frappuccino is available April 19-23 while supplies last in participating Starbucks stores in Canada.

The Starbucks Unicorn Frappuccino is made with a dusting of pink topping blended into a crème Frappuccino with mango syrup and layered with a pleasantly sour blue drizzle. It is then finished with vanilla whipped cream and a sprinkle of sweet pink and sour blue topping.
Just like the mythical creature that inspired its creation, the Starbucks Unicorn Frappuccino has a bit of a bedazzle to it. It starts off as a purple beverage with swirls of blue and a first taste that is sweet and fruity. But give it a stir and its colour changes to pink, and the flavour evolves to tangy and tart. The more the swirl, the more the beverage’s colour and flavours transform. Here is a video of me trying the Starbucks Unicorn Frappuccino:
I contacted a Starbucks representative to find out which Starbucks are participating and the response would be most if not all. They recommend calling your local Starbucks to know for certain, but there isn’t a formal list available. Be sure to head get your Starbucks Unicorn Frappuccino this week while the magic lasts.

This is an awesome looking Frappuccino. I would totally get one because of it's name and how fleeting it is. These types of limited specials make your day for sure.
