Less unicorn, more chocolate.

Lovers of specialty Starbucks frappuccinos, you can continue to live your best life.

Starbucks has announced a new frappuccino for the summer. No, it's not unicorn frappuccino reloaded but it will probably be just as popular.

The Midnight Mint Mocha Frappuccino will be coming to U.S. and Canada store locations starting May 2. The drink is made of extra-dark, coffee-blended cocoa that has been mixed with mint sugar crystals, and there's a layer of whipped cream both in the middle of the drink and on top.

Those of you who don't like whipped cream on your frap will despair at this news but the Leslie Knopes of the world will certainly rejoice.

Starbucks has also announced that the S'mores Frappuccino will be returning to the menu this summer, alongside Starbucks' Frappuccino Happy Hour where you can get half-priced frappuccinos from 3-6 p.m. The happy hour promotion runs from May 5-May 14.

The new frappuccino isn't as 'Grammable, but it also sounds much more approachable. We also can't wait to see what weird versions of it people create next.
