Seattle-based coffee giant Starbucks has offered up a flavorsome form of support to its home team, the Seahawks, as they prepare to take on the New England Patriots at Sunday's Super Bowl, by creating a limited edition green and blue Frappuccino in honor of the team's colors. Created by long-time Starbucks employee Thom Arvin, the Seahawks Frappuccino is a unique take on the company's much-loved Vanilla Bean Crème beverage, which blends blueberries and matcha green tea in order to achieve the team's traditional blue and green coloring. 'It’s definitely difficult to make something blue,' Mr Arvin said of his creation. 'I thought blueberry would be the best option to add to a Vanilla Bean Frappuccino and the matcha green tea adds a touch of green to the whipped cream.
