Good news, muggles – Starbucks is about to get a wizarding makeover. The coffee chain is set to team up with the Harry Potter franchise for a new line of merchandise and beverages across the Asia-Pacific region, celebrating themes of friendship, courage, and community.
Starting March 23, fans can get their hands on a lineup that goes beyond the usual themed cup. Featuring over 20 drinkware and lifestyle accessories, the spellbinding collection has everything from Hogwarts House mugs that change colours when you pour in something hot, to tumblers and cold cups adorned with wands, cauldrons, and owls, all done up in rich house colours with little constellation details. For something a little less conspicuous, they’ve also got Bearista keychains dressed in Hogwarts-inspired robes, Sorting Hat sticky notes for your desk, and travel tags ready for your next adventure.
On the drinks front, Starbucks is also whipping up three Honeydukes-inspired drinks – iced latte, a frozen tea, and a Frappuccino blend – each with popping Honey Bergamot-flavoured bubbles that burst with citrus flavours as you sip. Unfortunately, these will only be available in select locations, including Brunei, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Taiwan, and Vietnam, but that’s adding to your list of reasons for a quick trip!
The merch will be dropping in Hong Kong, Australia, Brunei, Cambodia, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Taiwan, and Vietnam on March 23. And because nothing magical ever sticks around forever, stock is limited, so you might want to move fast.
