Starbucks Vanilla Coffee Drink 9.5 fl oz

This Starbucks Vanilla Coffee Drink is a single-serve, refrigerated 9.5 fl oz ready-to-drink coffee that you’d typically find in the refrigerated dairy and grab-and-go beverage case of a grocery store, positioned near cold brew bottles, flavored milks and other bottled lattes. Shoppers reach for it on morning commutes, quick grocery runs before work, weekend brunch stock-ups, or as a sweet, portable pick-me-up during road trips. The product leans on Starbucks’ premium coffeehouse identity — marketed toward on-the-go professionals, students and brand-loyal consumers who want the cafe experience without a line. Packaging and labeling emphasize convenience and familiar brand cues: the Starbucks logo, “brewed Starbucks coffee,” and claims like “made with real milk” or “natural flavors,” creating a health halo even though there’s no organic certification and the front copy stresses flavor and brand rather than nutrition. Visually it reads like a premium convenience beverage rather than a kid-focused product. In plain language, it’s a processed, shelf-stable refrigerated beverage created from brewed coffee mixed with dairy, sugars and industrial additives; it’s not a fresh barista pour, but a manufactured ready-to-drink product. Sensory notes: creamy and smooth with a noticeable sweet vanilla character, a slightly viscous mouthfeel from milk and pectin, and a lingering sweetness from 30 g of added sugar; maltodextrin and natural flavors round and stabilize the taste. Rituals around the product are grab-from-the-cooler, twist-off-cap sips during commutes or a small dessert-like finish to breakfast, often paired with a pastry or eaten alone as a sweet caffeine boost.
