An Honest Review Of Starbucks’ Pistachio Cream Cold Brew
Starbucks constantly reinvents its menu. The viral Valentine's Day menu had everyone's attention with beverages worth falling head over heels. Now Starbucks is embracing all things pistachio.
Cold brew is increasingly popular today. For some, it's worth making at home with a coffee bar fit for a barista. I've never tried cold brew before but I love pistachios, so I decided to try it. If you've never had a cold brew, this makes for a perfect introduction.
A seasonal item that won't be on the menu for long - can be enjoyed iced, hot, or Frappuccino. The Pistachio Cream Cold Brew is made with vanilla syrup, and pistachio cream cold foam, and finished with delicious brown butter. This drink is for those who crave a little more sweetness.
I ordered an iced cold brew, which was $5. It's a refreshing drink for a nice warm day. Ordering a tall didn't leave me feeling like I needed more. This sweet beverage with a whisper of pistachio couldn't be more delicious. It has enough sweetness to keep the nuttiness from the pistachio from being too intense. I enjoyed all the flavors the Pistachio Cream Cold Brew has to offer - especially the salted brown butter. It certainly added a tasty twist. In short, I thoroughly enjoyed this drink, but it's not something I'd have a taste for year-round.
Pistachio Cream Cold Brew Rating: 4/5
