How to Make the New Cherry Pie Frappuccino from Starbucks
Last week, Starbucks announced that they are introducing a Cherry Pie Frappuccino with a pie crust lid. I repeat, a pie crust lid. The stipulation, however, is that this delicacy is only available in Japan. With that, I decided that I could not live without this being a part of my life. Since it's a recipe inspired by cherry pie à la mode, I took this quite literally and combined ice cream, cherry pie filling, whipped cream, and pie crust:
