#Starbucks
o Lately some Starbucks customers haven’t been able to order favorite drinks leading them to believe that they may have been discontinued, but the truth is that a company-wide shortage has made it difficult for the company to fill the orders.
o You might recall that back in April, there was a shortage of oat milk and the newly introduced Honey Oatmilk Latte was hard to find.
o Here’s the current list of the “shorted” drinks: Chai Latte, Strawberry Acai Refresher, Mango Dragonfruit Refresher, White Chocolate Mocha, Cinnamon Dolce, Kiwi Starfruit Refresher, and Dark Roast Coffee.
o But there’s STILL more! Also reports that Starbucks has a temporary hold on 25 other items including chai tea bags, hazelnut syrup, toffee nut syrup, green iced tea and others. There’s no explanation about what’s going on, but we’ll keep you posted.
