Our favorite character, Hello Kitty, is turning 50! To join in on the celebration, coffee chain Starbucks is launching a new collaboration with the iconic character with a brand-new experience that is guaranteed to delight its fans.
From today, Sept. 10, both Hello Kitty and Starbucks fans in 13 Asia-Pacific countries can enjoy exclusive beverages, merchandise, and more under the Hello Kitty | Starbucks® collection.
The experience unveils two new Hello Kitty-themed handcrafted beverages dedicated to evoking nostalgia and bringing out Hello Kitty fans’ fond memories of the character.
One of them is the Apple Pie Cream Frappuccino, a blended beverage that is inspired by Hello Kitty’s favorite food: Mama’s apple pie. This velvety-smooth drink is made of a chunky apple sauce base layered with creamy milk and cream frappuccino syrup to give the comforting flavor of the said treat.
Meanwhile, the Red Apple Frozen Tea is an ode to Hello Kitty’s iconic red bow with its bright pink and red color and is made with the Teavana Zen Clouds Oolong Tea and a sweet apple sauce, frozen to give it a cool, refreshing, and sweet blend.
Of course, Hello Kitty lovers can also get their hands on a wide lineup of drinkware and lifestyle items, designed with the wide-eyed sensation’s playfulness in mind. This includes ceramic mugs, water bottles, and stainless-steel tumblers with images of the character in a Starbucks apron and her signature red bow.
The collection also has Hello Kitty-themed daily items and accessories, including a lanyard, an apron, and a phone charm, as well as a cute and fluffy plush toy of Hello Kitty wearing a green Starbucks apron.
Hello Kitty | Starbucks® collection is available exclusively in Australia, Brunei, Cambodia, South Korea, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Taiwan, Vietnam, New Zealand, India, and Indonesia.
