Starbucks has expanded its beverage menu with the introduction of Starbucks Iced Energy Beverages, entering the growing energy drinks market.
The new line features three flavours, with caffeine content ranging from 180mg to 205mg.
All flavours are exclusively available in Starbucks’ venti (24-fluid-ounce) size, containing caffeine, vitamins and taurine.
The Iced Energy Beverages come in two in-store flavours, Melon Burst and Tropical Citrus, and a limited-edition Frozen Tropical Citrus Iced Energy with Strawberry Purée available through the Starbucks app.
While the limited edition contains sugar, the standard offerings are sugar-free, and use artificial sweeteners.
Starbucks has stated that the caffeine content in its Iced Energy drinks is comparable to that of its grande-sized Cold Brew.
