Starbucks is testing mini Frappuccinos

Share

Starbucks is testing new mini versions of its ice-blended Frappuccino drinks. But don’t expect a baby-sized cup.

The Frappuccino mini is 10 ounces, just two ounces shy of the chain’s “tall” size. Guess it’s perfect for when you’re craving a Frappuccino, but can’t seem to finish those last couple of sips.

The new size also costs about 30 cents less.

“We just know that our customers are looking for new things,” said Starbucks spokeswoman Maggie Jantzen. “We’re excited to test a new size offering and looking forward to learning more.”

Jantzen also added that you can request other drinks in the new 10-ounce mini size.

The Frappuccino mini is being tested in Denver and Houston and there’s no word yet on whether the new minis will make their way to other markets.

And in case you’re wondering, there isn’t video of a tiny hamster drinking mini Frappuccinos just yet.

Starbucks claims there are more than 36,000 potential variations of its famous blended beverage. And if you’re into pumpkin spice, they’ve just released a Pumpkin Spice Frappuccino for fall.
