Starbucks is launching a black Phantom Frappuccino for Halloween and it's goth as f***
We're hurtle rapidly towards every spooky human's favourite holiday: Halloween.
Great news for goths, witches, and anyone who's highly jazzed about Oct. 31: Starbucks is launching a "Phantom Frappuccino" and its colour matches that of your dark, spooky soul.
The Phantom Frappuccino launches in UK stores from Oct. 26 and will be available until Oct. 31. According to a Starbucks statement emailed to Mashable, this is the coffee retailer's first ever black Frappuccino.
The blended drink is made with coconut milk, mango essence and "ghoulish lime slime." It also happens to be 100 percent vegan friendly.
The slime is, per Metro, made from charcoal powder (hence the black colour) and spirulina extract.
Prices might vary depending on store location, but prices start at £2.70 for a mini size. A perfect drink Wednesday Addams, if you ask us.
