Yes, we are absolutely, totally in love with the Starbucks fall menu. But, we also 100% adore the beloved secret menu! There’s so much possibility when it comes to Starbucks drinks, especially when you think about all the available flavors. It’s never a bad time to be get crafty with caffeine.
For Halloween, we’ve already had a few amazing secret menu marvels, like the Jack Skellington Frappuccino (available only during fall) and the Sally Frappuccino (available all year). Perfect for a spooky Halloween date! What’s next on the scary secret menu docket?
Whatcha Gonna Drink? A Ghostbusters Frappuccino!
That’s right! This frightening frozen beverage wonder comes straight from the secret menu inventors at Totally the Bomb.
The drink itself was partly inspired by the famous red caution sign in the Ghostbusters logo. To make this Frapp, start with a Grande Vanilla Bean Frappuccino. Next, ask for a single pump of the raspberry syrup (or two, or three…if you like raspberry as much as I do). Then, ask the barista to line the bottom of the cup with strawberry puree. That bright red is very important for the look!
After the vanilla bean and raspberry mixture has been poured back into the cup, top it all off with sweet, sweet whipped cream AND mocha cookie crumbles. We’re on our way to Spook Central!

This is what Halloween looked like in 1984, when the original Ghostbusters premiered.
How Long Will It Be Available?
