“To commemorate Frappuccino’s 20th anniversary, Starbucks is offering a limited-time Birthday Cake Frappuccino blended beverage,” the company’s website says. The drink will include vanilla bean and hazelnut flavors and will be topped with raspberry-infused whipped cream.

Frappuccino blended beverages are available in all 66 countries in which Starbucks currently operates. The most popular flavors, according to Starbucks, are Caramel, Mocha, Vanilla Bean, Java Chip and Double Chocolatey Chip.

In his book, Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz wrote that the frappuccino’s story “epitomizes the enterprising spirit we still have at Starbucks. It’s experimental. It’s adventurous. It fires people up and engages their imagination.”
