If you’re one of the millions of Americans who enjoy a daily cup of coffee, you’ve probably noticed how your coffee habits have evolved over the years.
In the past, you might have brewed your coffee with a traditional coffee maker and ground beans by hand. Then, as convenience became a priority, many switched to machines like Keurig or Nespresso. But when the pandemic hit, you might have decided to level up and invest in an espresso machine, giving you a more sophisticated coffee experience at home.
However, as you returned to your busy work schedule, those once-prized machines may have been pushed aside in favor of more convenient coffee options. Likely, that means you’ve turned to your local coffee shop or drive-thru on your way to work. And for many, Starbucks has become the go-to spot.
With more than 40,000 locations worldwide, Starbucks is a quick, reliable choice for millions of Americans. It offers a wide variety of flavors and drink options that keep customers coming back for more. However, as popular as Starbucks is, the company has had to make tough decisions over the years, removing drinks that either didn’t resonate with customers or were simply too expensive to continue offering.
If you’ve found your favorite Starbucks drink no longer available, you’re not alone. While the company is known for innovation and regularly introducing new, exciting beverages, it’s also been forced to let go of some options due to factors like low sales or high production costs. So, if you’re missing a familiar drink, check out the new seasonal offerings or ask your barista for suggestions on customizing your next order to make it feel like the old favorite.
