You Only Have 5 Days To Get the Extremely Real Unicorn Frappuccino

Last week, the internet freaked out over rumors that Starbucks would be releasing a Unicorn Frappuccino. And now, we know those rumors are true! Starting Wednesday, April 19, you’ll be able to get one of these mythical concoctions at Starbucks stores around North America—but only for five days. The unicorn frapp will fade into legend status once again on April 23.

The drink is a creme frappuccino base with sweet pink powder, mango syrup and sour blue drizzle. According to Starbucks, it also changes color from purple to pink when stirred, and changes flavor from “sweet and fruity” to “tangy and tart.” Is this the taste of unicorn essence, or just Fun Dip in blended beverage form? Either way, the taste of the unicorn frappuccino is secondary—it’s really all about how it looks on your Insta feed, right?
