Reporters try new Starbucks color-changing, unicorn drink

Starbucks has released its newest, dazzling creation — the Unicorn Frappuccino Blended Beverage.

The color-changing, flavor-changing drink will only be at Starbucks locations for a few days, according to the company’s website. The multi-colored drink has hints of sour and fruity flavors. The drink contains mango syrup, according to the Starbucks app.

“Swirl it to reveal a color-changing spectacle of purple and pink. It’s finished with whipped cream-sprinkled pink and blue fairy powders,” the Starbucks menu says.

The 16-ounce Unicorn Frappuccino is 410 calories and also includes 59 grams of sugar and 16 grams of fat. There is no caffeine in the drink.
