News: Starbucks - New Summer Drinks 2013

Starbucks offers three new drinks for the summer with new Valencia Orange Refreshers, Orange Spice Iced Coffee, and Shaken Iced Peach Green Tea Lemonade.

Valencia Orange Refreshers are made with real fruit and fruit juice plus green coffee extract for a hit of caffeine. They feature the taste of Valencia oranges and clementines along with notes of jasmine, cardamom, and apricot. It's garnished with a slice of naval orange and is also available in instant Via form.

A 12-ounce Tall is 70 calories.

Orange Spice Iced Coffee is Starbucks' regular brewed iced coffee shaken with an orange slice and cinnamon for a spicy, fruity kick.
A sweetened 12-ounce Tall of the Orange Spice Coffee comes in at 60 calories.

Shaken Iced Peach Green Tea Lemonade features green tea and lemonade lightly sweetened with peach syrup and shaken with ice and peach pieces.

The Peach Green Tea Lemonade will run you 100 calories for a 12-ounce Tall size.

The concept is that each drink is ideal for a different daypart with iced coffee for the mornings, lemonade for lunch, and the Refresher for an afternoon pick-me-up.

The coffee and tea-lemonade are only available for a limited time.

Also new this summer are three new Salad Bowls:

- Chicken & Greens Caesar - the typical grilled chicken, parmesan cheese, and lettuce with fresh kale and roasted tomatoes thrown in to keep in interesting. With Caesar dressing of course.

- Zesty Chicken & Black Bean - grilled chicken, black beans, roasted corn, jicama, tomatoes, feta, spring greens, and quinoa with mild chili vinaigrette.

- Hearty Veggie & Brown Rice - roasted butternut squash and beets tossed with chopped kale and red cabbage, steamed broccoli florets, and garden peas with lemony tahini dressing.

Each Bowl clocks in with less than 430 calories.
