From April 24, Starbucks Rewards members can get their hands on three new Tiramisu-themed drinks, ahead of the full launch to all customers on May 1.
Inspired by the classic Italian pudding, the range includes a Tiramisu Cream Iced Latte worth £4.95, and a Tiramisu Cream Iced Oat Shaken Espresso, and a Tiramisu Frappuccino that will both set you back £5.05.
Each one is made with vanilla mascarpone flavour sauce, finished with a mocha drizzle, and topped with a creamy cold foam dusted with cocoa powder.
The drinks start from £4.95 – and are designed to give a sweet twist to your usual caffeine hit.
But the sweet stuff doesn't stop there.
Also arriving next week is the new Melon Pearl Starbucks Refresha, packed with popping melon pearls, and the Frozen Mango Dragonfruit Refresha, a tropical ice-blended drink loaded with fruit flavour.
The fruity sips come in from £4.75 – but be warned, the melon pearls could pose a choking hazard for young children.
The menu isn't just about drinks either.

The full menu hits stores nationwide from May 1 – but it's only available while stocks last.
REWARDS SHAKE-UP
Starbucks made a big change to its rewards scheme back in January.
The updated programme promised that customers would be able to earn free drinks more quickly, but they would need to spend more to qualify for other perks.
Additionally, while freebies became easier to obtain, achieving "gold" membership status became more challenging.
When announcing the changes, Starbucks said: "We will be switching up your Stars from 3 per £1 to 10 per £1!
"We're updating the Starbucks Rewards program in the new year.
"Introducing new products and tiers for Star redemption and refining Gold Level status, including amending the Gold Level threshold to 2500 Stars.
"Meanwhile, your Star value, credit, any free drinks and Reward status remain the same throughout the update."
The company also reassured customers that Stars would still be redeemable for up to two years and could now be used across a wider range of items.
Five things you didn't know about Starbucks
The name was inspired by a book
Co-founders Gordon Bowker, Jerry Baldwin, and Zev Siegl opened the first Starbucks in Seattle on March 30, 1971. The name was inspired by author Herman Melville's famous novel, Moby-Dick - Starbuck was the name of the first mate on the ship, the Pequod.
It has its own coffee farm
Purchased in 2013, Hacienda Alsacia is a 240-hectare coffee farm located in Costa Rica. Customers can't visit, but they can take a virtual tour.
Different apron colours
Did you ever notice some of the Starbucks staff wearing different colour aprons? Green, Black, Red and there's also a few special editions.
Before there were Sharpie pens
Starbucks is known for writing your name on your drink cup, but before this idea came to fruition, the position of a cup on the bar would tell the barista how to make the beverage. Upside down for decaf!
Millions of fans, millions of drinks
US Starbucks stores will sell around 5 million drinks daily in 2024, and the top-selling of which is currently Caramel Macchiato.
