Handmaid's Tale Refresher
Under his eye — or at least under a heavy helping of foam.

Berry Caramel Frappuccino
This one is sure to "berry" good — and a nice transition from fall to summer flavors. According to Instagram user Keith “Kj” Spiller Jr, head to Starbucks and order a strawberry acai lemonade, filled to the first line and get apple juice filled to the second line.
Add strawberry purée, two scoops dragon fruit inclusion, two scoops strawberry inclusion, add ice, shake, then double blend, says Spiller.
Be sure to have the barista line the cup with caramel drizzle and put some on top, too.
