The Strato Frappuccino is a new type of Frappuccino introduced by Starbucks that features layers of creamy cold foam on top of the blended drink, instead of the usual whipped cream topping. The name "Strato" comes from the Italian word for "layer," highlighting this innovative layered presentation. There are three main flavors available for the Strato Frappuccino:
- Brown Sugar Strato Frappuccino: A blend of Frappuccino Roast coffee, milk, and ice, layered with brown sugar-flavored cream cold foam and finished with a cinnamon accent.
- Salted Caramel Mocha Strato Frappuccino: Made with mocha sauce and Frappuccino Roast coffee blended with milk and ice, topped with salted caramel-flavored cream cold foam and caramel drizzle.
- Strawberry Matcha Strato Frappuccino: A combination of Starbucks' unsweetened matcha, simple syrup, milk, and ice, topped with strawberry-flavored cream cold foam.
These drinks are described as creamy, rich, and balanced, with the cold foam providing a fluffy, cloud-like texture that differs from traditional whipped cream. They are considered a decadent treat, especially popular as a summer refreshment, and are part of a seasonal lineup available while supplies last. Overall, the Strato Frappuccino offers a fresh twist on the classic Frappuccino experience with its unique layered cold foam, adding both texture and flavor enhancements to the beverage. If you enjoy cold foam and layered drinks, the Strato Frappuccino is worth trying in any of its available flavors. This innovative blend and foam layering have been well received for their flavor profiles and refreshing qualities on hot days.
