“The Strawberries and Cream Frappuccino is a big favorite of ours, especially during the hot summer months when we want to keep cool and enjoy instant refreshment. It's a classic with an icy twist,” said Rana Shaheen, Starbucks' regional communications and CSR manager for the MENA region. “We are proud to announce that our strawberry syrup is 100 percent local. The real juicy sensation comes from Starbucks picking only the ripest strawberries for the locally prepared syrup that goes into this drink, in accordance with our objectives of keeping a close relationship with our community and customers. We look forward to welcoming this fruity beverage to the Kingdom to keep our customers cool all summer long,” she added.
