Remember the upside-down Frosty snowman cup that was released during the Christmas season in Starbucks stores here last year?
It sold out within a day or two back then.
Starbucks releases new ‘Let It Snow’ merchandise collection that are just way too adorable to miss
In China, there’s a similar double-walled cup being released today, 28 February and it comes with an adorable shape that resembles a cat paw.
And it’s driving fans crazy, literally to the point where there have been reports of people getting into arguments and fights over the cups.
Here how it looks like when it’s filled.
