The coffee chain announced the beverage Wednesday. It’s a tropical Creme Frappuccino with dashes of powder in yellow, red and blue. When the colors mix, you get a rainbow of vibrant hues.

"We wanted to create something that celebrates summer and really conveys it both visually and through flavor within the beverage," Paloma Carrington-Bataller, the designer of the drink, said on the company's blog. "We knew it had to make you smile at first sight and our Tie-Dye Frappuccino does all this! It's summer in a cup.

The drink is available now at participating locations in the United States and Canada. But hurry. You can snag one only through July 15 or while supplies last.
