From June 13 to June 19, 25 cents of every drink sold in the new line of beverages will go to the Born This Way Foundation to support "the wellness of young people and empower them to create a kinder and braver world."
Lady Gaga told Starbucks in a statement, “We’re healthier and happier when we live our lives with compassion and our communities are stronger when we treat one another with generosity and respect."
The new, Gaga-approved flavors include Violet Drink, Ombré Pink Drink, Pink Drink, and Matcha Lemonade. “I adore the entire collection and I instantly fell in love with the Matcha Lemonade,” she admitted.
New Matcha Lemonade: This vibrant green drink is made with finely ground Teavana® matcha green tea, combined with crisp lemonade then shaken with ice to create a refreshingly sweet, delicious drink.
New Violet Drink: The sweet blackberries and tart hibiscus of Very Berry Hibiscus Starbucks Refreshers™ Beverage swirl together with creamy coconutmilk and ice, creating a refreshing (and violet-hued) sip.
Ombré Pink Drink: A refreshing beverage that combines light, fruity Cool Lime Starbucks Refreshers™ Beverage with cool, creamy coconutmilk and a splash of Teavana® Shaken Iced Passion Tango™ Tea and a lime wheel, for a bright burst of hibiscus notes.
Pink Drink: A light and refreshing beverage that features the sweet strawberry flavors of Strawberry Acai Refreshers with accents of passion fruit and acai combined with coconutmilk, and topped with a scoop of strawberries. Included in Cups of Kindness collection in United States only.
Starbucks has committed to a minimum $250,000 contribution to the Born This Way Foundation. Founded by Gaga in 2012, the Foundation invests in communities, education, and mental health resources across the country to create more positive environments and spread kindness.
Now you don't have to feel bad about your next coffee run!
