Here are 10 Starbucks items not available in the United States.
In many American urban hubs there’s a Starbucks on every block, but that doesn’t necessarily mean they offer easy access to all the goodies.
Here are 10 Starbucks items that aren’t available in the United States.
Number 10. Pumpkin Pie. For many, fall begins the second Starbucks puts its pumpkin spiced latte back on the menu. Perhaps in all of the excitement nobody’s ever questioned the absence of the pie that inspired it. If you’re wondering where it is – it’s in Japan, whipped topping and all.
Number 9. Coconut Pandan Roll. The US certainly isn’t lacking in rolled up cake options, but few of them look as cool as this bright green one. Only patrons in Thailand get to make this yummy sweet part of their afternoon pick-me-up.
Number 8. Coffee Jelly Frappuccino. Starbucks released this special drink in Asian stores during the summer of 2008. Jelly made from real brewed coffee serves as the bottom layer.
Number 7. The Flat White. The topper isn’t just foam – it’s microfoam. This drink, which is espresso and very specifically steamed milk, is said to have emerged in Australia as early as the 1970s. That’s where it’s enjoyed to this day.
Number 6. Pancakes. Yes, that’s right. European Starbucks patrons get pancakes. They can also choose honey and maple sauce or berry compote as a topping.
Number 5. Meringue Brownies. The coffee chain’s lucky clientele in Argentina can order up a delicious chocolate and caramel brownie topped with three perfectly formed and browned dollops of fluffy meringue.
Number 4. Peanut Butter Panini. Should you find yourself in Indonesia don’t miss out on the opportunity to enjoy your dark roast with the toasty, gooey goodness that is this sandwich. Now, that’s some serious comfort food.
Number 3. Red Bean Frappuccino. The green tea blended drink is a popular one in Asia, so to make a good thing better Starbucks started offering it with a topper of an area favorite - red beans. Refreshing and protein packed, what more could a person want?
Number 2. Chocolate Star Cake. Candy stars make a dessert look more exciting, but do they make it taste better? You’ll have to ask somebody from Ireland, as that’s the only place this celestial-themed delight is sold.
Number 1. Starbucks Via Cake. The delectable looking sweet eat appears to be served just about everywhere except in the United States. It’s made using the store’s instant coffee – and a whole lot of other scrumptious stuff.
What non-US Starbucks product would you like see in your hometown?
