Coffee jelly Frappuccino from Starbucks Phillipines

Here's something I'll bet they don't serve in Seattle: it's the coffee jelly Frappuccino. According to Santos from The Scent of Green Bananas, the Starbucks in the Phillipines are serving this "refreshing" drink, basically a normal Frappuccino with cubes of coffee gelatin in the bottom - a coffee version of bubble tea perhaps? I wonder if this delicacy will be coming to Starbucks stateside anytime soon?

Green Milk Tea with Coffee Jelly is always good :)
