Ariana Grande/Instagram
It’s hard to deny it, but Ariana Grande and Starbucks are two of the most popular topics in the country these days. Even if you’re not a fan of pop, you’ve probably found yourself singing “Thank U, Next” under your breath after a confrontation with your boss. And sure, maybe you’re not a fan of their coffee, but a Frappuccino might be your go-to summertime treat.
Besides both constantly taking over headlines, they have something else in common — they’re both quite familiar with the word “grande.” Ariana Grande was born with the name Ariana Grande-Butera, meaning it’s been part of her entire life. For Starbucks, fans know that “grande” means 16 ounces, or the medium size. (The word itself means “large,” but Starbucks has two sizes even bigger — the venti and the trenta.)
Starbucks has been hinting hard at a collaboration with Grande, but only gave a few strange clues on social media so far. And those clues are similar to the famous Denny’s “zoom in on the syrup” tweet from years back.

At this point, nobody would have expected that Grande would be involved at all.
A beautiful photo, yet with another secret message.

If it’s not what’s coming out, maybe Starbucks should consider it.

Who knows if this is accurate, or what it may have to do with Grande, but possible spoilers ahead if you really want to wait.
Caramel cloud macchiato. This is the second new release drink that I got an email for a day before the announcement.

But, there’s one more to go. This time, it’s a rainbow.

Even though I couldn’t see it, meaning that my eyes have probably died due to the number of secret words I’ve had to look at in the last few tweets, others on Twitter say that this message is the strangest of all.
Alright, You Dew You too, Starbucks👍😎

Something is definitely happening, as Grande confirmed it on Twitter. But of course, she mostly used emojis.
Well, we learned that Starbucks doesn’t care how high we need to set computer monitor settings, and also, that they’re releasing something that’s loosely related to Grande and clouds.
We out here vibin', we vibin', we vibiiiiiiinnnn'

But maybe we can ease up on the cloud photos until then, Starbucks?
