Due to the popularity of the taste among Starbucks baristas, the coffee company is introducing two brand-new beverages that use lavender.
Even though I like lavender, I was concerned the beverages might be overly flowery or sweet.
Oat milk, lavender powder, and Starbucks Blonde Espresso are the ingredients of the new latte. It even has a little hint of purple.
I thought this would be very sugary, but it was really rather well-balanced—probably because it was made with powder rather than syrup. It didn't taste like soap, either.
The Lavender Oatmilk, Iced Matcha shouts springtime. This is a traditional oat milk iced matcha, with a lavender cream cool foam on top.
The flavors worked wonderfully together creating a creamy drink that I couldn't put down, even though I didn't think they would go well together.
