These witchy Frappuccinos will put a spell on you.
It’s a full moon tonight. That’s when all the weirdos are out in Salem. Don’t be surprised if you hear cackles from a gaggle of sisterly witches, three!
The Sanderson sisters have returned, probably to order a Hocus Pocus Frappuccino from the Starbucks secret menu.
It’s All a Bunch of Hocus Pocus!
OK, while the sisterly witches aren’t formally here to create their own versions of the Frappuccino, Totally the Bomb has decided to take up the mantle. Winnie, Mary and Sarah each have a Frappuccino inspired by their witchy looks in Hocus Pocus. (And don’t worry—these will be available even after Halloween has come and gone.)
How to Order a Winifred Sanderson Frappuccino
You know her, you love her and you just can’t get enough of that big, red hair. Winnie is the oldest of the three and the clear leader of the group. She’s a sassy witch with one goal on her mind and a whole lot of magic to make it happen! To match her green dress and bright red top, she’s got quite the unique drink.
Grande Green Tea Frappuccino
One pump of White Mocha
One pump of Peppermint Syrup
After your drink has finished blending, top it all off with some fluffy whipped cream and some delicious Crushed Strawberry Inclusions for that colorful finish. You’ve never had anything like this drink—trust me!
She may be the odd, gullible middle sister of the trio, but that doesn’t mean we love her any less. Besides, whenever she does her totally iconic lip trick, we can’t help but smile! Here’s a sweet strawberry drink to commemorate the sister we probably identify with the most.
Grande Strawberries and Cream Frappuccino
One scoop of Strawberry Inclusions
Sub White Mocha instead of sweetener
Then, you’ll want to ask for mocha drizzle and strawberry puree on both the top AND bottom of the drink. Overall, this is a flavor classic. Chocolate and strawberries, am I right?! Thanks for being your lovable, witchy self, Mary!
Last but not least, we’ve got the youngest and blondest Sanderson sister. While she definitely seems to be more interested in cute boys than sucking the life force out of children like her oldest sister, she still embodies the mystifying spirit of a witch. We’ve got a gorgeous purple drink to honor this sister’s bubbly personality!
Grande Violet Drink
Add extra berries
Sub Soy Milk instead of Coconut Milk
Ask for the drink to be double-blended, and then top it all off with whipped cream and some beautiful, golden ginger powder to signify Sarah’s flowing locks. Pretty magical, right?
And there you have it! Three perfect Frappuccinos to sip while having a Hocus Pocus viewing party, or hunting the children of Salem in the quest for immortality. You know….just witchy things!
