Strato Starbucks refers to a line of new layered Frappuccino drinks introduced by Starbucks. The term "Strato" comes from the Italian word for "layer," which highlights the key feature of these beverages: they have distinct layers created by combining cold foam with the blended Frappuccino base instead of the usual whipped cream topping. There are three main flavors of Strato Frappuccinos:
- Brown Sugar Strato™ Frappuccino: A coffee base with brown sugar-flavored cream cold foam and a sprinkle of cinnamon on top.
- Strawberry Matcha Strato™ Frappuccino: A blend of matcha and strawberry cream cold foam, creating a colorful and flavorful drink.
- Salted Caramel Mocha Strato™ Frappuccino: Combines mocha and coffee flavors topped with salted caramel-flavored cream cold foam and caramel drizzle.
These drinks are noted for their innovative texture and presentation, offering a creamy cold foam layer that customers can either enjoy first or mix into the frappuccino. They are summer seasonal treats aimed at adding variety and visual appeal to Starbucks' menu. Strato Frappuccinos are available in Tall, Grande, and Venti sizes and have been well-received for their balance of flavors and texture, providing a modern twist on the classic Frappuccino experience. They emphasize a rich, creamy, and layered cold beverage designed for the summer months while being visually Instagram-worthy.
