NEW YORK: Starbucks Corp is calling a limited-time beverage that changes colours and flavours with a stir of the straw a "Unicorn Frappuccino.''

The chain says the drink is inspired by the trend of unicorn-themed food online and starts out purple with a sweet and fruity taste. It changes to pink and tart after it's stirred to mix in a blue drizzle.

It will be available from April 19 to April 23 in the United States, Canada and Mexico, with a 12-ounce size containing 280 calories.

Earlier this month, Seattle-based Starbucks also introduced a "Pink Drink'' made with coconut milk and topped with strawberries.

The pretty pink beverage took over Instagram last summer and quickly lead to other creations -- like the Purple Drink, Blue Drink and Green Drink. ap
