While we were in Disney Springs celebrating the re-opening of the World of Disney store, and finding attraction spirit jerseys we stopped at Starbucks to try out their limited-time Witch’s Brew Crème Frappuccino.
Starbucks Witch’s Brew Crème Frappuccino
Witch’s Brew is this Halloween’s specialty, limited-time/until supplies last, Frappuccino following in the footsteps of last year’s Zombie Frappuccino and other limited time Frapps like the Unicorn and Mermaid.
Starbucks describes this as a blend of Toad’s Breath (the purple), a swirl of Bat Warts (the chia seeds), and a dusting of lizard scale powder (the green sugar sprinkled on the whipped cream). Right off the bat (pun intended), our Brew was light on the “Lizard Scale” — can you see it in this picture? We promise it is there!

Now for the all-important taste — according to Starbucks it is supposed to taste like the Orange Crème Frappuccino. We were disappointed by this. It tasted like a watered down Orange Creamsicle from our childhood, but with a really gooey texture. The gooey texture came from the chia seeds, which didn’t add to the taste, but really subtracted from the experience for us.

This is great for a fun Halloween or Insta picture, but if you’re looking for something that is a better flavor experience we’d say pick a different Frapp off the menu. Plus, the $5.95 price tag for a grande size made us question the value of the entire experience — even if we got great pictures and enjoyed eating the whipped cream!
This Frapp is only around for a limited time, or until supplies last. Have you been spellbound by this Brew? Let us know in the comments!

Hi! Starbucks barista here. None of the limited frappuccinos (with the ONLY exception being the Crystal Ball) are good. Ever. Starbucks has even come out and basically said taste is secondary. It’s all for Instagram. While I disagree that this tastes “watered down” (it’s VERY orangey), I 100% agree that the chia seeds ruin the experience. Ask for extra topping next time, as well.
Yea. I ordered a vente because I always do. It was weird with those chia seeds. I won’t order this again. If I try something different again I will get the tall. The seeds were gross
