My Favorite Summer Starbucks Drinks for 2026

Hey, hey! It’s OFFICIALLY summer drink season.

If you’re a loyal Starbucks customer, we all know that means it’s time for ICED and REFRESHING drinks.

We don’t stick to the “normal” menu around here, that would be no fun!

Here are a handful of “secret menu” custom drinks we think really shine for summer.

Of course though, we’ve got so many other “coffee order” articles we’ll list down below we think you should check out as well. 🙂

My Favorite Summer Starbucks Drink Orders

Without further ado, here’s a short list of my absolute FAVORITE summer Starbucks drinks.

Venti Vanilla, Drk Caramel, & White Mocha Iced Latte

Y’all this order is SO good. It’s perfectly flavored and iced lattes are great for summer! Now, this order is a tad pricey.

I grabbed it on my birthday since I got a drink free!

If you’re looking for a fun iced latte order from Starbucks this summer, here you go. 🙂

Venti Pink Coconut Cloud

When you want something sweet other than coffee from Starbucks, try this option! Marisa came up with this concoction and we can’t wait to try it.

How to Order:

Venti Pink Drink
Coconut Milk
Vanilla Sweet Cream Cold Foam

When you want something sweet other than coffee from Starbucks, I highly recommend this!

Grande Iced Peach Green Tea

This one isn’t a custom order, but so good!

It’s refreshing, slightly sweet, and not super high in added sugar like some of the alternatives. It is super delicious.

Green tea is combined with flavors of spearmint, lemon verbena and lemongrass. The peachy flavor is perfect for summer (but honestly I drink it year round!).

Grande Cookie Butter Cold Brew

Okay this drink is from one of my favorite creators of all time (because she’s always giving out the most original drink ideas) that we are so thankful allowed us to feature a few of her creations here on the blog!

This is Kelly Erin who we highly recommend following. If Instagram is more your thing, she’s also over there and you can follow her HERE.

How to Order:

Grande Vanilla Sweet Cream Cold Brew
Sub Vanilla for 1 White Mocha
1 Brown Sugar

Cold Brew is just perfect for summer, so this combo is great!

Venti Iced Shaken Espresso

This one was just GOOD. A venti shaken espresso with 2 caramel syrup, 1 cinnamon dolce syrup, and whole milk.

YUM!

I just ordered this new drink in April and know it will be my go-to all summer long.

Conclusion

That’s it for today! Just a few summer Starbucks drinks you’ll love if you give them a try.
