Launched: A Macchiato for Hazelnut Lovers
Looking through your comments, we noticed something. There are some of you who like to add Hazelnut syrup to your Caramel Macchiatos. And we’ll admit it – that’s a great flavor combination! But as we considered this idea and experimented in our test kitchens, we realized something: A Hazelnut Macchiato could be pretty dang good on its own. And that’s what we’re introducing today. Like its caramel cousin, this artfully crafted espresso beverage unfolds into layers of delicious flavors. When I tried one, the first sip was all velvety foam and generous hazelnut drizzle. Next came the rich espresso and steamed milk. The final treat was the gooey mixture of sweet hazelnut … more »

Cochineal Extract Update
As I first shared on March 29 , we’ve learned that we fell short of your expectations by using natural cochineal extract as a colorant in four food and two beverage offerings in the United States. Our commitment to you, our customers, is to serve the highest quality products available. As our customers you expect and deserve better – and we promise to do better. After a thorough, yet fastidious, evaluation, I am pleased to report that we are reformulating the affected products to assure the highest quality possible. Our expectation is to be fully transitioned to lycopene, a natural, tomato-based extract, in the strawberry sauce (base) used in our Strawberries & Crème Frappuccino® … more »
Reusable cold cups are back—and thanks to you, BIGGER!
What’s insulated, BPA-free and now comes in a Venti (20 oz.) option? It’s the hottest serveware item of the season that is sure to keep your drinks cold—the reusable cold cups! We heard you and we’re bringing both the Grande (16 oz.) and Venti sizes of the cold cups to you in participating stores and online. While our standard disposable plastic cup is 24 ounces, drinks made for the Venti reusable cold cup will require a little less ice due to its smaller size. But do not fear-- the cup comes with permanent fill lines to guide baristas on the perfect drink proportions, so your beverage will be made just right. The double-wall protection keeps your hands dry and your beverage … more »
