One of two summertime flavours at Starbucks
I just ordered a Starbucks Berry Prickly Pear Frappucino Crème this afternoon because I was curious about the new products. It is one of two new crème flavours for the summer, the other being pineapple mango. Both frappucinos are made with a mango crème and mixed with fruit purée. Unfortunately this flavour did not live up to my expectations. I'm glad I tried it because it is a seasonal/temporary product, but the prickly pear flavour was too strong and just not a good combination with the mango, in my opinion. I would have preferred if it was just straight berries with mango. However, I can say that it was very refreshing and not as heavy as the regular crème frapps I've had. I am looking forward to trying the pineapple mango variety though as those are two flavours that always go well together, in addition to the mango crème base itself.
I like that these are made with real fruit purées rather than the powder (I believe it's powder) used with the other crème frapps. Try these out for yourself ladies! Maybe there are lots of prickly pear fans out there :)
