As Valentine’s Day draws closer, Starbucks is offering some new chocolate-inspired drinks for the holiday.
If you’re obsessed with chocolate and coffee (who isn’t?), this is probably the kind of news you live for.
Apparently, there are “more than 36,000 ways baristas can customize Frappuccino blended beverages”, a Starbucks spokesperson told The Huffington Post. The first is called the Molten Chocolate Latte. It also comes topped with that (decaf) espresso cream and mocha sauce.
The frappuccino iteration consists of coffee with mocha syrup and chocolate chips blended with milk and ice.
Molten chocolate cake has been a fixture of romantic dinners since the ’80s-multiple chefs lay claim to inventing it-and this week only, it’s available at Starbucks in drink form. Mocha and espresso-infused whipped cream and an espresso mocha drizzle are added to the top.
Here, the chocolaty chips and bittersweet mocha sauce are melted into steamed milk, and the special drizzle and whipped cream are also available as toppings.
If you’re not looking for coffee, the Molten Hot Chocolate is mocha sauce and chocolate chips, melted into steamed milk.
