Starbucks + Pinkberry?!?

Tonight, Adam and I went to a photographer's meeting for local photogs (yes - we're turning into photo geeks just in case I wasn't one already). On the way home we stopped at Starbucks to grab a drink and process some of the info from the meeting.

Naturally, I was quite surprised to see Pinkberry's logo on the menu as we walked in.

What? Pinkberry at Starbucks?

I don't frequent Starbucks all that often so maybe this is old news to everyone else but I was quite suprised and delighted to see their latest menu item Sorbetto featuring a Pinkberry flavor.




As a non-coffee and non-tea drinker, I'm always excited about their little concoctions that exclude these two items. We got to try a sample and I have to say yum! We tried the Pinkberry flavor and the Mixed Berry Citrus flavor and I was really impressed with both!

This is brilliant, I thought. Especially since it will bring Pinkberry goodness to those who don't have one in their area!

But it was not to be: "Now at select Los Angeles Starbucks".

Sorry East-Coasters! Hopefully the trend will spread quickly!

Oh!!! I'm jealous! The Starbucks here in NorCal has introduced these weird banana-chocolate smoothie things which look disgusting (those might be everywhere). But I think I'd settle just for a regular Pinkberry's opening up in the area.

Okay, I hate to be the Pinkberry hater . . . but I am. I just wasn't overwhelmed, and I totally expected to be. Oh well.

I liked Pinkberry but have you had CeFiore? It is fabulous! I want to take a trip back out there just for that!
