Starbucks intros new beverage line

SEATTLE — Starbucks Corp. has launched a line of new orange-flavored beverages in addition to its signature celebrity "Green Umbrellas for a Green Cause" campaign and auction.

 

The beverage line includes the new Orange Mocha or Orange Crème Frappuccino blended crème. Additionally, Starbucks is offering all Frappuccino blended crème beverages in a new light version — with 1/3 fewer calories.

 

Guests also can sip their Frappuccino blended crème under a Starbucks iconic umbrella. To kick off the start of summer, top Hollywood celebrities who share Starbucks passion for the environment have transformed a series of Starbucks green umbrellas into works of art.

 

The celebrity signature umbrellas will be auctioned to the public beginning May 21. The proceeds from the "Green Umbrellas for a Green Cause" auction will be donated to Global Green USA — a national leader in advocating for smart solutions to global warming. In addition Starbucks will make a $25,000 donation to Global Green USA.
