Starbucks' Unicorn Frappucino might give good photo opp, but Anthony Bourdain thinks it's trash.。
The inbred show-dog of Starbucks drinks was the target of Bourdain's disdain in a recent interview with 。 Town & Country。. He can't seem to comprehend how this wretched, unnaturally colorful thing exists... but he's clearly。 not 。a fan.。
SEE ALSO:I am the founder of Starbucks and I am begging you to stop buying the Unicorn Frappuccino 。Wow, that’s like four things I hate all in one sentence: Starbucks, unicorns, and the colors pink and purple. Also a Frappuccino! It’s the perfect nexus of awfulness. Just add pumpkin spice to that mix, and you can nuke the whole county. 。
Tell us how you really feel, Mr. Bourdain. 。
The Unicorn Frappucino consists of "a sweet dusting of pink powder blended into a crème Frappuccino with mango syrup, and layered with a pleasantly sour blue powder topping," according to Starbucks. It's apparently like a reverse Sour Patch Kid: sweet when you first drink it, but increasingly tangy as everything stirs together. 。
Thanks for signing up! 。
Don't let the unnatural coloring or "sour" sugar powder throw you: this is still supposed to be coffee. 。
Bourdain is hardly alone in his dissent. The UniFrapp also found another high-profile hater in Katy Perry, who spit out the fruity coffee after one sip. A self-proclaimed "unicorn" herself, Perry's accompanying Instagram video includes the comment "I couldn't handle drinking my own blood."。
There's some good news, at least our nightmare is almost over.。
