Starbucks Introduces Protein Cold Foam in Asia Pacific
A new take on cold foam, adding a protein boost to everyday iced beverage routines.
Starbucks is shaking up the coffee scene with another innovation, designed to effortlessly upgrade morning coffee rituals and mid-afternoon matcha moments. Introducing Protein Cold Foam, a creamy, frothy layer with a light protein boost, which will begin rolling out across four markets in Asia Pacific from June 11.
Protein Cold Foam offers a simple way to boost familiar orders – making everyday routines feel more substantial and carry a little further through the day. Across the region, interest in protein continues to grow as more people look for snacks and beverages that support balanced, everyday wellness. By offering Protein Cold Foam alongside drinks people already enjoy, familiar, everyday routines stay the same, just with a smoother, more considered finish.
Crafted to Complement Iced Beverage Routines
Crafted by blending whey protein with a dairy base, Protein Cold Foam forms a smooth, velvety layer expertly designed to sit atop Starbucks iced beverages. Soft yet creamy, it crowns each cup with subtle richness and a rounded finish while allowing the beverage beneath to remain at the center of the experience.
Built on Cold Foam, a popular Starbucks menu topping, Protein Cold Foam keeps its signature velvety texture, now with added protein. Available in a range of flavors, it pairs seamlessly with iced Americano, Latte, Pure Matcha, and more, adding a subtle lift to iced favorites.
