As summer approaches, Starbucks is once again offering their Frappuccino Happy Hour promotion. Under the promotion, customers can get half-off the price of any Frappuccino from 3pm to 5pm, starting this Friday, May 3 and running through Sunday, May 12.

In conjunction with Frappuccino Happy Hour, Starbucks is launching the new Caramel Ribbon Crunch Frappuccino and returns the Mocha Cookie Crumble Frappuccino.
