Starbucks rolls out new summer Orange Cream menu in Canada and tests sparkling Refreshers in U.S. cities

Starbucks introduced a new summer beverage line in Canada on July 28, adding several Orange Cream drinks to its menu. The lineup includes an Orange Cream Cold Brew, Iced Orange Cream Latte, Iced Orange Cream Matcha, Iced Orange Cream Chai, and an Orange Cream Frappuccino, all featuring orange‑vanilla flavors and cream‑foam toppings.

Separately, the company began testing carbonated versions of its Refreshers, branded as Spritzers, at 100 locations in Austin, San Antonio and St. Louis. The test includes Sparkling Cold Brew Sour, Strawberry Sunset, Golden Peach, Strawberry Matcha, and sparkling mango and strawberry lemonade Refreshers. CEO Brian Niccol said the sparkling drinks are intended to reinvigorate the Refreshers platform and appeal to a broader range of customers.

Both initiatives are part of Starbucks' broader effort to expand seasonal offerings and experiment with new formats across North America.
