Starbucks drinks aren’t always served hot! The perfect way to cool off on a hot summer day is with any one of the Starbucks Refreshers. There are so many different flavors to choose from using real fruit juices. One of one of the first flavors (and fan favorite) in the Refreshers line of drinks was actually discontinued several years ago, but it’s so easy to make at home. You’ll be making this copycat Starbucks Valencia Orange Refresher recipe all summer long!

Copycat Starbucks Valencia Orange Refresher Recipe

One can be a fan of Starbucks without drinking the traditional drinks the store is known for! I personally don’t drink coffee or tea. So many of the line of Refresher drinks at Starbucks are caffeine free. Over the years there have been quite a few new recipes in the Refreshers line. Loyal customers know all of them!

A Starbucks Refresher drink is the perfect refreshment to enjoy all summer long.

When did the first Starbucks Refreshers come out?

The first refreshers were Very Berry Hibiscus (a refreshing blend of hibiscus, tart berries, and acai that had a slightly sweet and tart flavor, with a hint of citrus) and Cool Lime (a refreshing blend of lime, lemon, and extract with a tart and citrusy flavor, with a hint of sweetness). Both were wildly popular and led to more drinks using real fruit juice.

What types of Starbucks Refreshers are on the current menu?

Over the years there have been quite a few new recipes

My favorite Starbucks refresher is definitely the Paradise Drink. It uses my favorite natural flavors, the perfect combination of pineapple juice and coconut milk. So refreshing and the perfect complement together! Get the copycat HERE.

Are the current menu options the best Refreshers? Not always so! And you don’t have to run down to your local Starbucks every time you want a tasty Refresher. That can get expensive, too. Make a copycat at home!
