Starbucks Korea has introduced an academically/aesthetically pleasing drink bottle to delight uni grads and fans of cute design alike.
With graduation season approaching, Starbucks Korea have introduced their newest graduation-themed product: a white stainless steel drink bottle designed to keep cold drinks cold (and also stylish!). The bottle has a 473-millilitre (16-ounce) liquid capacity and comes with a removable graduation “cap” and “gown”. Designed for cold drinks rather than hot ones, the bottle would probably be well-suited as an everyday water bottle for toting around and staying hydrated on the go.
Here’s what the bottle looks like in its ‘undressed’ form – meaning you can keep using the bottle even after that graduation glow has worn off and you’re starting your first 9-5 job.
The bottle’s stylish design and academic motif would make it the perfect classy gift for a new graduate – and certainly a better choice than some of the really weird graduation gifts some students in Japan have gotten in recent years!
