Spring has officially sprung at Starbucks with the arrival of three lavender-infused beverages and new food items, I taste tested and reviewed the entire menu. Here's my ranking of it from worst to best.

I really wanted to like this one. But, this just felt greasy, heavy, and too sweet. It also just looks sad.

Starbucks says of this lavender latte that “the sweet and subtly floral notes of lavender come together for a latte with a springtime twist.” I agree. Also, probably better hot.

If you like the two flavors separately, you’ll find they play together nicely in the Lavender Matcha.

It took a lot – and I mean, a lot – of willpower not to drink all of this in one sip. The flavor was reminiscent of lavender ice cream.
