What’s in a Pink Purple Drink – (ingredients)

The pink-purple drink is a mixture of two separate drinks which are the famous pink drink and the purple drink. So let’s look at what makes these two drinks;

Coconut milk – This is the first constituent of the pink drink. You will have to ask specifically for this milk as the pink drink is also a spinoff of another Starbucks drink that doesn’t use coconut milk.

Strawberry Acai tea – This is another major component of the pink drink that has notes of passion fruit and Acai tea. The strawberry Acai refresher was the drink that was customized to make the pink drink.

Frozen strawberry, blueberry, and blackberries – These berries are blended with other ingredients and give the drinks their colors and also they are used as toppings. You can have all of them or choose between blueberry and blackberry. Straw berry mainly goes to the pink drink while the rest goes into the purple drink.

Soy milk – soy milk is used to make the purple drink and it’s the best choice as it makes this drink suitable for vegans and people who do non-dairy diets.

Passion iced tea – It is used to make the purple drink giving it notes of the passion tea.

Vanilla syrup – This tunes the taste of the purple drink and also improves the consistency of the drink. You can choose between sweet vanilla syrup or sugar-free vanilla syrup.
