This Valentine’s Day, Starbucks is adding a new twist to coffee time with the launch of its Pistachio Hot Chocolate and Pistachio Iced Chocolate.
The Pistachio Hot Chocolate (from £5.95) blends steamed milk with rich mocha sauce and is topped with a velvety pistachio-flavoured foam, giving each sip a comforting, nutty warmth.
The iced version offers the same creamy pistachio notes over ice, perfect for a refreshing twist on a winter favourite.
Alongside the drinks, Starbucks has introduced a few playful treats to mark the occasion.
The Valentine Bear Cake Pop is a small vanilla cake with a biscuit crumb, dipped in white chocolate and finished with chocolate ears and a heart-shaped nose.
For a slightly larger indulgence, the Pistachio Scroll combines buttery pastry with pistachio butter, finished with crushed nuts and a drizzle of green white chocolate.
