A clear indicator that one season is on the way out and another is coming in is when restaurants change their seasonal menus. Starbucks is ready to usher in spring with fresh drink offerings and a new protein box … as well as a new non-dairy option.

Move over, almond milk! Starbucks is now serving up oat milk. The coffee chain is adding the plant-based Oatly oat milk to the permanent menu beginning on March 2. To kick off the new milk option, Starbucks has introduced the Iced Brown Sugar Oatmilk Shaken Espresso, as well as the Iced Chocolate Almondmilk Shaken Espresso. The Honey Oatmilk Latte will also now be available nationwide for the first time.

“We’re pleased to bring Oatly oat milk to Starbucks stores nationwide in the U.S., something our customers have asked for as they increasingly seek a variety of plant-based choices,” Luigi Bonini, senior vice president, Global Product Innovation at Starbucks, said in a press release.

As if we didn’t have enough Protein Box options at Starbucks, there’s a new option to add even more variety to your day. The Chickpea Bites & Avocado Protein Box is a plant-based box that includes chickpea bites, snap peas, mini carrots, dried cranberry and nut mix, and avocado spread. It has 15 grams of protein, and you know we’ll be dipping those bites in the avocado.

Oatmilk was originally tested at Starbucks locations in the Midwest and California. It follows soy milk, coconut milk, and almond milk as the fourth non-dairy milk alternative in the U.S. But if you’re unsure about hopping on the oat milk train, Starbucks is offering a deal to reward members. On March 4, go to your Starbucks app and order ahead any handcrafted beverage size grande or larger. Then, you’ll be sent a coupon for a free drink that’s redeemable from March 10 to 12. Boom! Free oat milk drink (or any beverage you want) with no strings attached.
