Starbucks is launching two new chilled drinks across UK supermarkets throughout August.
The coffee chain has introduced Matcha Latte and Strawberry Matcha Latte to its ready-to-drink range.
Each drink has a recommended retail price of £2, though prices may vary by retailer.
The Matcha Latte blends milk with matcha, while the Strawberry Matcha Latte adds a fruity twist, as reported by creatorzine.com.
Both drinks are permanent additions to the Starbucks chilled coffee range, not limited-edition releases.
The Matcha Latte comes in green packaging, while the Strawberry Matcha Latte features a pink and green design.
Starbucks executive Nik Dhodi confirmed the new range had launched across several European, Middle Eastern and African markets.
Announcing the news on LinkedIn, he said: "Matcha is having a moment, and for good reason.
"Consumers are looking for new rituals, balanced energy and great taste.
