Starbucks release latte that tastes like a Christmas tree and we’re mildly intrigued

Scrap mildly.

We’re extremely intrigued and we want this liquid to be inside of our bodies right now.

Christmas is a decent time for a lot of reasons. Most of those reasons have to do with pretty lights and expensive gifts, but another major factor that comes into play here is the Starbucks Christmas menu.

Most years it includes the classic like the Toffee Nut Latte and the Christmas Tree brownie, but this year, they’ve introduced something so unique, so intriguing, so different, that we’d almost be tempted to hop a flight to the US to taste one.

Just kidding, no latte is worth that much of a trek, but whatever, we’re still into the idea.

Because it’s a latte that tastes like a legitimate Christmas tree – and yeah, giz it, tbh.

The drink in question is called the Juniper Latte and according to the guys over at Starbz, it’s got “a hint of juniper and sage, an evergreen aroma and citrus notes.”

So essentially a Christmas tree, yeah.

The beverage is rolling out in select stores across the US and Canada, so they’re clearly not entirely sure that customers are going to dig it as much as we do, but then again we’re going off speculation alone and not actual taste.

Still though, ’tis the season and all.
