Starbucks is collaborating with K-pop sensation BTS and we want one of everything, please! Here’s all you need to know about this upcoming partnership.
Forget new tumblers and seasonal drinks, give us BTS! The K-pop legend is taking over Starbucks in a partnership we are all 100% into! Not so fast, though, there’s a catch you may not like. In fact, these coming details may just ruin it all for you…
If you live in South Korea or plan on visiting soon, be sure to drop by Starbucks! The coffee shop is running a promotion that began Tuesday, Jan. 21, through Feb. 6, in which they debut menu items and merchandise featuring BTS. According to Delish, This campaign is called “Be the Brightest Star” and part of the proceeds from sales go to the Beautiful Foundation, which supports education in underprivileged communities in South Korea.
Consider us (and the rest of the world) super jealous! The merch looks beautiful and what an amazing campaign this is. We would have all loved to support “Be the Brightest Star,” so hey, if they ever decide to expand the campaign, they know they can count on us!
The source shares that the featured drink is the “Blooming Purple Vin Chaud,” which is made with “elderflower, grape juice, and fruit,” it can be a hot or cold. Menu items include the blueberry star macaron, purple berry cheesecake, and more!
Drinks and food aren’t the only “Be the Brightest Star” specials, South Korea customers will also find mugs and accessories that go with the theme. The shops will additionally be playing BTS’ hit song “Make it Right.”
