Berry Hibiscus! Where are you that you have it back???
curlystar14 46 points 1y ago
A lot of stores have actually been getting it back it’s so exciting. Some stores in my area have also said that they just got it, not mine tho 🥲

I'm in Ontario, Canada and we just got it back. I started three months ago and it was the first time we've had it since I've been around

We got it, and we had been told it had been discontinued. To be fair, we are a kiosk and we often don't get access to certain things sold in stand-alones, so it would be reasonable to learn that it will still be sold just not by us. Still odd to get the juice and no berries and no way to order any.

Los Angeles County. Got the juice and the berries back last week and the peach the week before.

I was telling people it was discontinued. I didnt know it was coming back. Yikes
sweet-seat 26 points 1y ago
i was told by our store manager it was being discontinued, so i did the same thing 😂 broke many a hearts.
21900_eggs 9 points 1y ago
Honestly though. Customers were like "what? That was the only thing id get!"
Ive never had it, but i typically dont like berry tastes like that so i personally never saw the hype for it

I like it. It's a lot less harsh than the mango dragonfruit. Although I don't get inclusions, and lemonade def helps!
21900_eggs 1 points 1y ago
Ill only really drink the mango dragonfruit out of the refreshers. I always did mango dragonfruit lemonade, no inclusions, with passion tea on top. It was very delicious
sweet-seat 3 points 1y ago
it tastes like ass. think kiwi star fruit, but slightly easier to stomach.
21900_eggs 2 points 1y ago
The kiwi base smells so gross i refuse to drink it lol
mysteriousjuror 7 points 1y ago
That’s because Starbucks told us it was being discontinued, so dw.
Kittywizarrr 3 points 1y ago
I think when the managers were saying “discontinued” they meant it was out temporarily
deekutzi 3 points 1y ago
We always say “unfortunately XYZ has been temporarily discontinued” but we’ve had the peach now for about 3 weeks and just got very berry last week.
21900_eggs 1 points 1y ago
Yeah. At least to my knowledge my store doesnt know when peach is coming back so i say that we dont have it atm and not sure when its coming back
drinkliquidclocks 2 points 1y ago
It was discontinued, but only temporarily. That was official news. Same for peach. They discontinued it until production was feasible again

Yeah im pretty sure, theyre getting rid of guava then getting peach back, at least im pretty sure i was told that. But im still not fully certain
kookubo 1 points 1y ago
Yup. My store no longer recieves guava but we've been told we're going to start getting peach.
Edit: Peach was temporarily discontinued in order to produce enough strawberry acai, but now peach is replacing guava because too many people complained

Lol RIGHT?!....after awhile I stopped saying they were ‘paused’, cuz it just confused customers and tbh, it led to questions for which I had NEITHER the time NOR the answer!
minty-hitler 12 points 1y ago
Hibiscus is my favorite drink i’ve been waiting for so long
bryceofswadia 7 points 1y ago
I thought that one was gone for good?
liz-can-too 6 points 1y ago
Long retired partner here - since when are refresher bases 4x concentrated? We used to drink the concentrate as our partner Bevvy back in the day as our perk me up
stoneylizzard [OP] 9 points 1y ago
they changed it last summer i believe
sweet-seat 7 points 1y ago
they changed it towards the end of may 2021/june 2021? iirc? it was barely being implemented when i left and was only for strawberry açaí. i personally can taste the difference since they switched it to 4x and can't drink SAR anymore :/
twiIightprincess_ 3 points 1y ago
Does it taste the same? The strawberry is slightly different
1000rats 2 points 1y ago
It tastes the same to me!
Snarkybratt 2 points 1y ago

Sir_Aaron123 1 points 1y ago
Our store already ran out of peach. ☹️
kookubo 1 points 1y ago
Canada here, we got juice, berries, and the button to order it! We've had it for about a week now.
Potet0mash 1 points 1y ago

VenusInFirs 1 points 1y ago

TheSuntannSuperman 1 points 1y ago
I never ran out. Ever. Ever? We've been buying it literally this whole time
Ok-Responsibility735 1 points 1y ago
We also got in the Houston area, but no berry inclusions.
Coffeeaftersex 1 points 1y ago
Oh, very berry, the queen of ghosting people and breaking hearts. 🥲❤
Ok_Blueberry_8301 1 points 1y ago
Not a lot of people knew it would come back eventually. It was temporarily discontinued bc of covid and problems with distribution. They didn't really circulate the info tho, so only a select few knew it would be back.
boxinghamster16 5 points 1y ago
No they definitely released a communication right when it started that it was temporarily discontinued. Everyone just ignored the word temporarily.
Ok_Blueberry_8301 0 points 1y ago
That's my point tho. When managers got that information they didn't really tell anyone. I found out secondhand from a store 2 hrs away from me when I just happened to mention I missed the peach.
canithoe 0 points 1y ago
I thought very berry was discontinued for good :(

New flavor for the Christmas season?
kcly93 13 points 1y ago
Nah just the return of berry hibiscus which has been on shortage for a long time
Hench_LV_15D -28 points 1y ago
How would anyone know what the point of the post was?
kcly93 19 points 1y ago
The second picture i suppose. I saw berry hibiscus and understood immediately, but thats because I still have people asking about its return all the time
