The fall drink menu is one of Starbucks' important highlights because of its delicious and unique flavors. This year, Starbucks launched the first completely vegan fall drink, and is expected to overtake Pumpkin Spice Latte - Pumpkin-flavored milk coffee.

This vegan super product is called Apple Crisp Oatmilk Macchiato - Apple flavored milk ice cream cafe. Made with oat milk, apples, cinnamon, brown sugar, espresso and a few drops of honey on top.

“Making the Apple Crisp Oatmilk Macchiato with Starbucks Blonde Espresso gives the coffee a soft and smooth base, tying all the flavors together,” said Mr. Harvey Rojas Mora, Starbucks beverage developer. together. Additionally, the oat milk adds richness and provides a uniquely captivating flavor to the traditional apple crisp topping.”

First fall vegan drink

If you are a familiar fan of Starbucks, you will probably recognize the familiarity of this drink. However, while last year the Apple Crisp Macchiato was made with cow's milk, this year this version is made entirely with plant-based ingredients.

This means that Starbucks has made oat milk part of the standard recipe and no longer offers vegan options to customers. This reflects the trend of young consumers, who make up the majority of Starbucks customers, who are increasingly choosing more plant-based products to protect the environment.

“As you know, the Apple Crisp Macchiato was first introduced last year and will return this year with oat milk and Starbucks Blonde Espresso as the standard recipe,” a Starbucks spokesperson said. “We always listen to our customers and partners (employees) and develop our menu to meet their unique tastes and preferences.”
