With the advent of spring, Starbucks' winter drinks drop out of the menu one after another, and new posters with the smell of spring appear on the bar one after another. Recently, Starbucks stores in Hong Kong and Macao updated their menu to launch a new strawberry Deep-Fried Glutinous Rice Cake Stuffed with Bean Paste mellow fresh milk matcha.

According to official posters and netizens' introductions, the new cup is based on a regular matcha latte, with strawberry milk, special small ingredient Deep-Fried Glutinous Rice Cake Stuffed with Bean Paste pearl and decorative freeze-dried strawberries, so the whole glass of beer looks good-looking. As soon as it went on the shelves, it attracted many netizens to place orders to try this new spring product.

However, spring drinks, which are considered by users to be in line with the hearts of young girls, actually do not fully meet the expectations of some consumers. After a consumer got the drink, he opened the lid of the cup and felt that his eyes were black and that the call was not in line with the publicity photo.

She said that the beautiful drinks on the official posters need to be set off through transparent cups, but because of plastic restrictions in Hong Kong, the cold drinks they receive can only be packed in opaque white paper cups, making it impossible to appreciate the appearance of the finished product. So much so that the beauty party was bitter about this, saying that "there is no plastic cup, so the only emotional value that good looks may bring is lost."

Some people even think that paper cups "have the opposite effect". The freeze-dried strawberries soaked in the drink with matcha green base look like a bowl of green curry chili soup, directly reducing one's appetite. "opening the lid this way looks a bit like vomit."

But there are also people who think that you can't just look at appearances. These good-looking drinks become more or less unrecognizable after shaking, but being ugly doesn't necessarily mean it tastes bad. However, when they inserted a straw and took a sip, they found that they spoke a little early.

The first wave of customers who tried new products said that Deep-Fried Glutinous Rice Cake Stuffed with Bean Paste was added to the drink to enrich the taste and that the small ingredients were made into the size of pearls for convenience. But surprisingly, the brand is not equipped with a large-mouthed gold straw that can suck small materials, so when guests drink with the ordinary straws provided by the store, there will be the dilemma that Deep-Fried Glutinous Rice Cake Stuffed with Bean Paste's pearls are stuck in the straws. "drink with a kind of crazy feeling of dilemma", "a sweet potato has been eating", "Deep-Fried Glutinous Rice Cake Stuffed with Bean Paste has been blocking the straw".

In addition to the above, some consumers who placed orders for the drink said that the drink had an "explosive mentality", either a "sweet cough" or "almost no matcha and strawberry flavor" and "green strawberry milk". It is believed that after the attempt, the expectation of the new product has been swept away, and the onlookers have "stopped" after seeing the feedback from the experimenters and have no plans to buy it.

It is worth mentioning that the new Starbucks product is not only sold in Hong Kong and Macao, Singapore, Malaysia and other stores have also launched this cup of strawberry Deep-Fried Glutinous Rice Cake Stuffed with Bean Paste matcha latte, and the feedback is very similar to that of Hong Kong consumers.

Whenever there is a new product, loyal fans face Starbucks, a pink spring drink, and confess that they are very excited after learning that the new product is not the previous cherry blossom series, and that they are disappointed without much expectation. It makes people feel that this is a new product that "can be drunk but can only be drunk once".
