Easy Pink Drink Recipe
Thanks to tea, coconut milk, and fresh strawberries, this copycat Starbucks Pink Drink is light, refreshing, and bursting with flavor. After one sip of this DIY Pink Drink, you’ll find any occasion to quickly whip one up! Instead of ready-to-drink tea, I sometimes steep my own. Combine 1 tea bag and ½ cup of very hot water and set it aside to steep for 15 minutes. Let it cool to room temperature before continuing with the recipe.

How to Make Starbucks Pink Drink Step by Step
Combine the tea and juice: Add the 1/2 cup hibiscus tea and 1/4 cup white grape juice to a tall glass and stir to combine.
Add ice and coconut milk: Fill the glass with ice and top with 1/2 cup of coconut milk.
Stir and garnish: Stir to combine, if desired. Garnish with 2 sliced strawberries and enjoy.
How to Store
If you have leftovers, place your pink drink in the refrigerator and finish it by the end of the day. The longer the strawberries sit in the drink, the soggier they will become. Plus, if you leave ice in the drink, it will dilute it over time.
Serving Suggestions
Serve this Starbucks cult classic with Starbucks egg bites for a quick meal, a delicious croissant as a snack, or a few decadent cranberry bliss bars for a real treat. I often make this iconic iced lemon loaf cake, or these tangy lemon cake pops. It’s like having Starbucks right in your kitchen!
HI,
I have a question. Do I need to use grape juice? What else can I use?
Thanks!
We think white grape juice gives it the best, most authentic flavor, but you could try apple juice instead!
Tried multiple variations using 3 different recipes on my 12 year old who is crazy about pinkity drinks. Had to use Passion Tazo tea (which has hibiscus, passion fruit and orange) because I didn’t have hibiscus tea, plus added some sugar, and it was her absolute favorite even though not exactly like the Starbucks version It was the perfect pink color too! Thank you so very much for an easy recipe that turned out so well!!
Aw, we’re so glad she liked it!
This is more the purple drink they have then the pink drink
I made enough to fill a gallon pitcher and added extra grape juice and more coconut milk and a lil sugar to help sweeten it and its quite nice!
Love the suggestions!
I tried to make it at home and mine came out purple not pink but my daughter loves it anyway. It’s just turns oddly purple and I brew fresh tea. Thank you for sharing
Purple works too!
I am sorry this didn’t work out for you, Gloria.
Hibiscus will curdle dairy because of its acidity!
Coconut milk is non- dairy!
Can’t wait to make for my granddaughter she loves this at Starbucks. Thank you and love the recipes!
Enjoy!!
