American coffeehouse chain Starbucks is set to introduce two new beverages to celebrate Valentine's Day 2024.

The limited-edition drinks, Cupid Cream Shaken Tea Strawberry and Hibiscus and Cupid Frappuccino Strawberry and Mint, will be available between 9 and 15 February.

Cupid Cream Shaken Tea Strawberry and Hibiscus is a shaken tea lemonade, blended with strawberry puree and dragon fruit and finished with a topping of vanilla sweet cream.

The beverage was crafted in collaboration with employees from the Starbucks International Airport store in Medellin, Colombia.

The second beverage, Cupid Frappuccino Strawberry and Mint, combines white chocolate mocha with strawberries, milk and a hint of mint, and is topped with whipped cream.

It is the brainchild of 15 employees at the Starbucks Bosques de Aragón store in Mexico City, Mexico.

Inspired by the base of white chocolate mocha, the drink was developed over a period of two-and-a-half-weeks.

Starbucks Bosques de Aragón store manager Estefanía said: “In our team, creativity flows like coffee. We're the alchemists of inspiration, brewing fresh ideas with every espresso and serving innovation in each cup.

“Our connection is the magic that fuels this creative process, weaving an environment where ideas emerge naturally, nourishing our team.”

In November 2023, Starbucks introduced four new cold foam flavours in the US and Canada to mark the 2023 holiday season: Peppermint Chocolate Cream, Sugar Cookie Cream, Chestnut Praline Cream, and Caramel Brulée Cream - all infused with the brand's signature vanilla sweet cream.
