Have you heard of the Pink drink at Starbucks?

Soo many people took photos of it and posted to Instagram, which of course, made me curious and I had to order one to find out what the fuss was all about.

The Pink drink is really the Strawberry Acai Refresher with coconut milk.

Maybe it’s because of all the hype, and I was expecting so much more, but while the drink was good, I didn’t think it was the worth the price. Or the fuss.

Have you had it? What did you think of it?

Jasmine Iced Tea Lemonade

Slightly sweetened jasmine tea infused in a tart classic lemonade. This jasmine iced tea lemonade is perfect for those hot summer days.

As much as I love the warm summer days, sometimes the heat is just too much for me. I was born and raised in San Francisco, so I’m used to the cool weather. When I venture outside of the city during the summer, it can sometimes be unbearable. Especially when there’s a 20-30 degrees difference.

Of course, on those scorching hot summer days, I’m always looking for something cool and refreshing to drink. This jasmine iced tea lemonade is the perfect solution for that.

With the floral notes of the jasmine green tea and the sweetness and tartness of classic lemonade, this beverage is incredibly refreshing and perfect for summer. If you’re a fan of tea lemonade like I am, you’ll definitely enjoy this during the record heat days of summer.

What’s your favorite summer beverage? I’d love to try some of your favorites! [Read more…]
