The US Starbucks Stores will continue to sell the two drinks “for a limited period while the supplies last,” according to the Seattle-based company. Both appeared earlier on the Starbucks menus in front of Valentine’s Day last year.

Their reintroduction on Tuesday coincides with the company’s planned roll -out of its new Blackberry Sage Refresher, Blackberry Sage Lemonade Refresher and Midnight Drink.

These three drinks will also remain on Starbucks menus for a limited period of time. However, unlike Frappuccino and Cold Brew drinks, Canadian stores will also carry the new refreshers and midnight drinks beyond US locations, according to the company.
