Dear Starbucks patrons, staff, and management, 

 

Starbucks should heavily reconsider its choice of not adding Summer Berry and Summer Skies Refreshers on their new Summer 2026 Menu. These brightly-colored, sweet yet sour drinks didn't just cool us down on warm, humid summer days; they shaped memories with the ones we love and we look foward to ourselves sipping this iconic blue refresher.

 

Lots of posts on social media complain that their favorite drink isn't making a return this summer, which could be upsetting to people who filled their days with the delightful drink. They also complain that the new refreshers, the Butterfly Refreshers do not compete with the flair of the originals.

Millions of Starbucks enthusiasts wait a whole year for this, and to be disappointed will only make Starbucks be less remembered by their customers, and less likely to buy the new menu items. This readdition also benefits Starbucks, as they gain profit, since the drink was very popular in the 2024 and 2025 seasons, which will ultimately make customers return, and will attract the people who have never tried the drink.

 

People, I ask you for at least 5000 signatures to help with this cause. Starbucks, can you please let us taste this wonderful concoction this year, possibly letting it coexist with the Butterfly Refreshers?
