With the month of love approaching, many food companies are beginning to make changes to their menus in relation to Valentine’s Day, including Starbucks, a popular choice for many students.
Starbucks is set to release its Valentine’s menu on February 3rd, 2026. They plan to express the Valentine’s mood through the use of pink colors and strawberry flavors, along with viral food trends such as their new Dubai Chocolate drinks that were released in January.
One of the new limited edition flavors is the Strawberry Shortcake Frappuccino. This drink gives the appeal of a sweet treat that can even be considered a dessert. The drink consists of whipped cream, berry puree sauce, and shortbread crumbles on top to put it all together.
Another new limited edition drink is the White Chocolate Strawberry Cream Cold Brew. Although it is a traditional cold brew, it is topped with a cream cold foam to make the drink unique. It’s made for anyone who wants a traditional coffee with a kick of sugar and sweetness mixed in.
Sophomore Max Bergmann is looking forward to tasting these new items. “I am very excited to try these new drinks because I have a very big sweet tooth.”
Another IHS student, Lindsey Egloff, is ready to get her hands on these limited time items. “These new drinks and foods look amazing and I can’t wait to try them. I have been seeing it so much online and I always look forward to the Valentine’s Day menu.”
These new flavors are perfect for someone who wants a sweet treat and kick of sugar to boost them through the day. The new menu highlights global trends mixed with a classic Valentine’s day menu making it very hyped up. Starbucks is only offering this deal until February 14th, 2026, so make a trip to Starbucks soon before the Valentine season ends.
