Spring is bringing some big changes to Starbucks, and it looks like the coffee giant is cutting back. As part of a strategy to streamline its offerings, Starbucks is discontinuing 13 menu items starting March 4th. So, if you’re a fan of any of these, it’s time to say goodbye!

Here’s what’s being cut:

• Iced Matcha Lemonade (Try the Green Tea Lemonade as an alternative)
• Espresso Frappuccino & Caffè Vanilla Frappuccino (Go for the classic Coffee Frappuccino)
• White Chocolate Mocha Frappuccino (Substitute with the Mocha Frappuccino)
• Java Chip Frappuccino (Opt for the Mocha Cookie Crumble Frappuccino)
• Chai Crème, Caramel Ribbon Crunch Crème, Double Chocolaty Chip Crème, Chocolate Cookie Crumble Crème, and White Chocolate Crème Frappuccinos (Vanilla Bean Frappuccino is a great replacement)
• White Hot Chocolate (Switch to a customizable Hot Chocolate)
• Royal English Breakfast Latte (Try the London Fog Latte instead)
• Honey Almondmilk Flat White (Go for a regular Flat White, or customize with nondairy milk)

These changes are all part of Starbucks’ plan to simplify and curate their menu, focusing on their most popular drinks. The goal is to make it easier for customers to choose, while also improving consistency and quality across the board.

But don’t worry—Starbucks isn’t just cutting drinks. There’s a new lineup of drinks on the way, like the Cortado and Iced Cherry Chai, which might just become your new favorites! CEO Brian Niccol’s focus is on bringing Starbucks back to its roots as a community coffeehouse.
