starbucks

Many people put down corporate coffee and might not like this opportunity, but Starbucks is offering coffee for life.

We are close enough to start getting excited about a fall favorite right?

For some of us this is what starts our day.  Can't live without it.  What would I be talking about?  Coffee.  Well your beverage could see a price increase.

I was perusing a story today about Starbucks planning to put calorie counts on their menus. Seems like a good idea to let people know just how many calories they are ordering, but the story had an asinine quote from a "personal trainer" that just blew my mind.

If there's one thing we love about Starbucks, it's that they always give us a place to go to the bathroom. Aside from that, it's also always a good time when they mix up a customer's name. When a Hong Kong Starbucks employee thought a woman named Virginia was actually named Vagina, we laughed. We figured why not keep the laughs coming and found some more Starbucks name fails. We also included what

You know what they say -- when in Rome, do as the Romans do; when in Hong Kong, get called "Vagina" at a Starbucks.* That must be how that saying goes, because that's exactly what happened to a woman named Virginia who was visiting Hong Kong recently, and she wasn't too happy about it.

Between the allure of specialty holiday beverages and the overabundance or Starbucks gift cards in my house from the holidays, I saw my fair share of cardboard coffee cups in the trash over the past few weeks. Get this, Starbucks will start selling reusable cups for $1 starting tomorrow (Jan. 3rd, 2013) in hopes of cutting down the number of coffee cups that end up in the dump.

Last week yet another Starbucks opened it's doors in Northern Colorado. This time in Loveland, making five of the popular chain stores in that city alone. Some talk poorly about the chain and prefer smaller coffee shops, but others can't function without making a stop at Starbucks each morning. One thing is for sure... People are buying a lot of $6 cups of coffee because these places continue to p

Losing a loved one can be tough; and funerals aren't any picnic either. But one funeral home is trying to make the experience easier...with a coffee shop. A Starbucks coffee shop.  No joke.

Coffee aficionados, listen up: there are more than a dozen off-the-menu drinks you can order at Starbucks. So, how does one partake of this “secret” menu? Easy. The trick is how you order and we can help.

I don't put much thought into what makes my food the color that it is.  While it is important that food be aesthetically pleasing, I'm generally more concerned with taste and texture.  So I never gave much thought to what makes Starbucks red velvet cake so darn red, or that it might not be strawberries that give the strawberries and cream frappuccino its signature pink hue.

I have to admit, a coffee shop is probably the last place I would think to go after work to unwind with a cold beer.  But it looks like Starbucks is out to shatter my perceptions.  The giant coffee shop chain plans to start selling wine and beer at select locations in Atlanta, Chicago, and Southern California test markets by the end of this year.
