Here’s the introduction of 2 new drinks that they call Starbucks Refreshments, they are the 1st refreshments line, a new drink that Starbucks Philippines created with green coffee extract, an innovated taste and an extract that comes from an unroasted green and high quality arabica coffee beans, the green coffee extract is the source of caffeine that can revitalize and refreshes the body when we drink it.
I think Starbucks did some sorcery or magic to get an extract of coffee beans from an unroasted beans. Wow! How did they do that?
At the food session and tasting, they taught us on how to prepare the two new Refreshment drinks of Starbucks. Its just easy, by adding the extract juice, some lemon, berries and ice.
Cool Lime Starbucks Refreshers (Tall – P125, Grande – P135, Venti – P155)
I prepared and mixed this drink
