Okay now I've actually tried all the fraps and... this is definitely one of my favorite... I'll let you know in my final Scribbles About Food which one of these wins it for me... Idk if I've even decided yet... but this is a top contender for sure.
So this I think has always been a thing on the secret starbucks menu... but now its one of their LTD flavors and it tastes awesome. I believe all it is is a Vanilla Bean with Raspberry Syrup... it tastes like a cotton candy and it is awesome.
I think even though it tastes quite a bit like cotton candy, the raspberry is quite present. Like its noticeable that there is raspberry in this frap. Its really good. I happen to like Raspberry a lot and I feel like the flavor is nice and summery and it still has a cotton candy vibe to it... I'm pretty impressed.
This isn't something that you can just down a grande of... you need to sip it and keep it for a while. Its wayyy too sweet to just have all at once, you'll probably get sick... but I think that I prefer to drink something more slowly in the summer because it does get really hot out and you'll have this for the entire time you're out doing whatever you are doing. If your outside by a pool, at the beach, going for a walk, sitting outside of starbucks, or even just in a hot car... you have a drink to accompany you and cool you down through all of that.
I got this and I also tried this in one of the new Mini Frap sizes... and I've got to be honest here... I thought the mini size was a rip off. Its a little bigger than I expected... but its still tiny and it isn't that much cheaper than the Tall... so If you just want a taste of it... you might as well just get a tall. Its only a little bigger and only a little more expensive. I'll insert an insta of my mini frap next to my friend's Tall Frap. At the bottom. Or here... or somewhere... if I get to it... lol.
Is this better than Cool Ranch Doritos. I think its on par. I don't know if the sophistication is really the same as the complex flavors of Cool Ranch Doritos... actually it is. Because it has the cotton cand flavor... but also the distinctive vanilla bean and raspberry. So yeah. It is as sophisticated as Cool Ranch Doritos and probably better. I know I said I liked this more than the others and I rated them mostly better than Cool Ranch Doritos... but right now I'm really hungry and Cool Ranch Doritos sound more appealing to me than this frap... so that is affecting my vote a little.
Stay Classy!
