After the seemingly endless array of festive holiday drinks and their red cups are gone, Starbucks runs in January and February can feel a little sad in comparison when it’s time to switch back to regular, non-gingerbread flavored coffee. Luckily, Starbucks heard our prayers and dropped a festive Valentine’s Day drink — complete with pink sprinkles, no less.
Starting tomorrow Feb. 7 through Feb. 14, you’ll be able to order the coffee chain’s new Cherry Mocha — which is basically just chocolate-covered cherries in coffee form. The drink upgrades a typical mocha with candied cherry syrup, whipped cream and red and pink sprinkles — making it v Instagrammable in addition to being delicious.
If, for some reason, iced drinks in the middle of February are more your thing you can also get the Cherry Mocha as a Frappuccino or iced.
So, y’know, if you’re looking for a cute way to surprise your (coffee addicted) Valentine next week, showing up at his or her 8 a.m. class with one of these in hand just may be the way to their heart — bonus points if you also bring along confetti heart cake pop or heart-shaped sugar cookie.
