Made with Strawberry Acai Refresher, Starbucks’ pink drink has a tiny bit of caffeine, thanks to some green coffee extract. Instead of water, it’s mixed with coconut milk to create the shade of pink that makes it so Instagrammable. It’s topped off with chunks of fresh strawberries and blueberries that add to the fruity flavor.
Starbucks says, “Perfectly pastel pink in hue, the new Pink Coconut Starbucks Refresha drink tastes as good as it will look on your social feed,”
Starbucks Has a New Bright Pink Dragon Drink—and It’s a Total Sugar Bomb. Starbucks has announced that their bright pink Dragon Drink will be a permanent addition to their menu. The Dragon Drink ingredients include dragon fruit, various fruit juices and flavors, as well as coconut milk.
Well, it has at long-last arrived in the UK. And it’s safe to say, we’re very excited to see if it lives up to expectations. Arriving as part of the coffee chain’s all-new Refresha Range, the Pink Drink is more formally referred to as Starbucks’ Pink Coconut Refresha (a little less catchy, we know).
What does Starbucks Pink Drink taste like?
So what does the Starbucks Pink Drink taste like? According to some, similar to a pink Starburst. Starbucks’ official description says it has “accents of passion fruit…with creamy coconut milk,” making it “a fruity and refreshing sip of spring, no matter what time of year.”.
Is the Starbucks Pink Drink healthy? A 16-ounce grande made with coconut milk has 140 calories and contains 24 grams of sugar.
For example, if you’re consuming about 2,000 calories per day, your recommended added sugar intake is less than 20 grams. Considering a grande Pink Drink has 24 grams (coming from the sugar in the Strawberry Acai base and the coconut milk), it’s definitely not one of the healthiest items on the Starbucks menu —but it’s not bad compared …
One of the most famous, with its bubble-gum pink hue, may just snag the title of being most photogenic.

What is the dragon drink at Starbucks?
The Dragon Drink ingredients include dragon fruit, various fruit juices and flavors, as well as coconut milk.
Starbucks actually offers the Dragon Drink in a trenta size (which is the size larger than venti), and that’s a whopping 270 calories per drink. “That’s almost like a mini meal,” Cording says. “For that same calorie amount, you could have actual sliced dragon fruit with some kind of protein, like yogurt or eggs.”.
She just recommends asking Starbucks to half how much dragon fruit they put in there (which is where a lot of the sugar comes from) and ordering a tall size (100 calories and 18 grams of sugar). If you want to reduce how many calories are in the drink, you can also swap out the coconut milk for skim milk, she says.
The drink is also shaken with coconut milk and ice, and it contains caffeine and coconut .
Here’s what you can expect if you order a venti iced: 190 calories. 4.5 grams fat (4 g sat fat) 37 grams carbs (1 g fiber) 33 grams sugar. 1 gram protein.
You’re probably already aware that most pink drinks Starbucks serves up aren’t exactly health foods, and the same is true here. “It’s a ton of sugar and not much in the way of protein to buffer that sugar,” says New York-based registered dietitian Jessica Cording.
Gina Keatley, a CDN practicing in New York City, actually had a friend try the drink and says it doesn’t taste overly sweet, despite being a sugar bomb. “This is another specialty drink from Starbucks that is very tasty but should be seen as a treat and not a go-to daily drink,” she says. That’s especially true if you like to have your Starbucks drinks with a pastry, which can really load up the calories and sugar.
