Starbucks is treating customers to a sweet deal that will last most of the month.

The half-off offering isn’t the only treat customers can get. Every Monday from May 13 to May 27, Starbucks rewards members will receive a personalized offer in their app. The deals can range from triple star days to buy-one-get-one-free discounts.

The coffee chain has plenty of new drinks to try during the deals. On May 7, they released three new fruit-forward drinks to mark the summer menu. Each drink includes something new for the brand: raspberry-flavored pearls. The popping pearls were inspired by boba but aren't all that similar. Since they’re not made of tapioca, they aren’t chewy. They simply burst in your mouth in an instant.

The three bright blue drinks are also each made of a “sweet and summery blend of raspberry, blueberry and blackberry,” per a press release, but vary slightly. The Summer-Berry Refresher is combined with water; the Summer-Berry Lemonade is, of course, mixed with lemonade; and the Summer Skies Drink is blended with coconut milk.

In order to properly sip up the pearls, the refreshers come with wider straws, similar to those for bubble tea.

PEOPLE tried the new drinks and can confirm that the new pearls may be ephemeral, but their quick flavor zap makes for a fun, new beverage. Even better? You can customize other Starbucks drinks and refreshers by adding the pearls to any order of your choice.
