This The Nightmare Before Christmas-inspired drink is exactly what you need to complete your Halloween. Like many “secret menu” items, this Jack Skellington Frappuccino doesn’t actually exist, but you can order it if you know the recipe. First, ask for a pumpkin spice Frappuccino, and then add in a shot of chai syrup. Take it up a notch by adding in a shot of espresso for more caffeine. If you add whipped cream, it’ll make your drink look like the snow-filled Christmas Town.

2. Pennywise

I got to make a couple #itfrappuccino today at my #starbucks!!! Pictured first is my last attempt with a much better depiction of #Pennywise than my first attempt (pictured last). I loooove drawing him so I had to add him for the full effect!!! **PLEASE DO NOT ORDER THIS AS THE IT FRAPPUCCINO, your barista will likely NOT know what that is. Order a Vanilla bean frappuccino with strawberry purée on top! Oh, and PLEASE TIP YOUR #BARISTAS!!!!! @itmovieofficial @andy_muschietti @barbaramus Thank you for such an amazing movie experience these past few years!!! I’m so happy I can incorporate Pennywise into my everyday life ????? ETA//: If you see this featured anywhere please comment or DM me, I would love to see it!!! I also set up a ko-fi in my profile. If you enjoyed this and would like to see more cup art, art in general, or fun drinks, please consider supporting me there! #itfrapporchards

Making its original launch in 2017 following the first It movie, the Pennywise Frappuccino is making the rounds once again following the debut of It Chapter Two. Order a vanilla bean Frappuccino with strawberry purée on top to float your way out of Starbucks with a Pennywise drink in hand.

3. Maleficent

Listen well, all of you!? Today is the first official day of Halloweentime at Disneyland! At Market House (the Starbucks on Main Street), there are two new Disney villain-inspired drinks! This one is the Maleficent Frappuccino. It’s a vanilla bean creme Frappuccino base with blueberry juice and dragonfruit blended in and topped with matcha whipped cream. I’m not really a Frappuccino person (did it for the ‘gram), but even I enjoyed this. I love the matcha whipped cream? PSA from a Starbucks barista: we can make this drink for you at any store (minus the matcha whipped cream), but please make sure to tell your barista exactly what is in this, as it is not an official drink. Any other Starbucks Partners out there??? ・ #disneylandfood_ #disneylandfood #foodsofdisneyland #foodsofdisney #eatdisneyland #disneyeats #disneyfood @disneyeats #DisneyFoodBlog @disneyfoodblog #abc7eyewitness #disneyland #disneytreats #disneyblog #disneytravel #food #foodie #eeeeeats #foodstagram #foodphotography #starbucks #markethouse #mainstreet #halloweentime #maleficent #frappuccino #colorful #starbuckssecretmenu #maleficentfrappuccino #instagrammable #forthegram

While this drink is listed as being exclusive to Disney parks, most locations should be able to make it aside from the matcha whipped cream. Order a vanilla bean Frappuccino with blueberry juice and dragon fruit blended in.

Step aside #unicornfrappuccino, meet the #mermaidfrappuccino ?? @baycitystarbucks sold out of the unicorn frappuccino on the first day, but we made the moment right by suggesting other partner created frappuccinos! The mermaid frappuccino is a Pokémon go frappuccino without raspberry syrup, drizzled with a toasted coconut matcha sauce! I'll post the recipe in the comments ??? #tobeapartner #tobeamermaid #toolegitarea31 #starbucks #starbuckssecretmenu #frappuccino #happyhour #canigetasipsip #greenstraw #lovewhatyoudo @starbuckspartners @buzzfeed @frappuccino @amazon_barista #dragonfrappuccino @popsugarfood

This one is a little more complicated as the drizzle takes some time to make since it’s not readily available. For the frappe, order a vanilla bean Frappuccino with freeze-dried whole blackberries, line the cup with the green drizzle and top with whipped cream. To make the green drizzle, take eight pumps white mocha sauce, three pumps toasted coconut syrup, three scoops of matcha and mix in a pitcher until smooth. 

5. Butterbeer

Can’t make it to Hogsmeade? Visit your local Starbucks to snag a delicious Harry Potter butterbeer-inspired drink instead. Line a cup with caramel drizzle, ask for creme Frappuccino base with whole milk, add three pumps caramel syrup, three pumps toffee nut syrup and top with caramel drizzle.
