This sounds like something out of my most glorious dreams.

At least Starbucks is getting creative.

Starbucks has made a surprising offer for its customers in China to mark the Lunar New Year, launching a coffee beverage flavored with pork.

The new product, dubbed ‘Nian Feng Savory Latte,’ which roughly translates as ‘Abundant Year Savory Latte,’ will be limited to the Chinese year of the dragon, which kicked off on February 10.

According to the product page on the Starbucks China delivery app, the unusual beverage combines traditional latte ingredients – espresso and steamed milk – with Dongpo braised pork flavor sauce and pork breast meat for garnish. It is priced at 68 yuan ($9.45) and is described as having an “interesting” flavor.
