Starbucks spring grocery range has been announced by the brand as part of its early initiative to get shoppers stocking their pantry ahead of the end of winter. The brand is introducing new products including the White Chocolate Macadamia Flavored Coffee alongside the returning Vanilla Lavender and Brown Sugar Cinnamon varieties. The coffees will arrive alongside dairy-free creamers including the Brown Sugar Shaken Espresso, Lavender Latte and the Horchata Shaken Espresso, while the original White Chocolate Mocha will also be on offer.
Starbucks spring grocery range is debuting in single-serve pods and grounds, and takes things in a decidedly lighter flavor direction without completely dropping the indigence factor. This is expected to speak to consumers in search of a way to indulge their craving for lighter fare that's also customizable.
