Starbucks Introduces Vegan Frappuccinos!


Frapp

That's right. Starting on May 5th, vegans can enjoy one of the Starbucks products that has long eluded us: The Frappuccino. Unlike most Starbucks drinks, which can be made with a variety of milk options (including soy milk!), Frappuccinos have always been made with a base that contains 2% milk. I, for one, can't wait to order my first mocha Frappuccino after more than 7 years of going Frappuccino-free!

Cool! I am excited in a pretty formless way, since I have no idea what is in a Frappuccino. Is it like a coffee milkshake?

You should repost this on the 5th to remind those of us who are near Starbucks but don't go there very often.

A Frappuccino is like a coffee milkshake, sometimes with flavored syrup mixed in (ex. mocha or caramel or vanilla). I'm very excited for them, but I'm also just happy that now there's no drink that's off-limits to vegans!

I'll try to remember to re-post on 5/5... Sadly, I don't have a Starbucks nearby.
