Apart from the newly released lattes, Starbucks also previously launched pistachio and rose mocha.

After the release of the company's revenue last month, analysts cited that two factors that share to Starbucks' sales growth are differentiated food offerings and limited-time beverage offers. Although it has revealed previously of four Teavana store closure, additional 350 stores will be shuttered soon.
