It was 2017, and the year of Get Out, Beyoncé's twins, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle getting engaged, and the arrival of the Starbucks Unicorn Frappuccino and now after nearly 10 years away the viral drink is making a comeback.
Back in the late 2010s OTT Frappuccinos were everywhere and one beloved by fans was the Unicorn Frappuccino which is made from "a sweet and tart blend of creamy mango flavours, tangy blue drizzle, whipped cream, and pink and blue topping."
As the name suggests it's a vibrant pinky colour in appearance and topped with a dollop of whipped cream.
And now it will be heading back to the UK for just one weekend!

Starbucks has now confirmed the Unicorn Frappuccino will be available this weekend Saturday 15th to Monday 17th August in the UK.
Everyone's clicking on...
The coffee chain has confirmed the drink will be available for those three days, but only while stocks last so if that's not a sign to get there first thing in the morning, we don't know what is.
Despite it's success in 2017, the Frappuccino hasn't actually been available in stores for years now, however, it did return earlier this year in the US for a select pop-up at music festival Coachella.
When the drink was teased to be returning a few weeks ago it was safe to say fans were beyond excited for its return, with one Starbucks follower saying: "Omggg we are getting it ahhhh I need 🥹🥰🥰🥰🦄." While another said: "I NEVER GOT TO TRY THIS 🦄🦄🦄."
