Starbucks is launching olive oil infused-coffee, and even interim CEO Howard Schultz acknowledged there was 'some skepticism' about the drink
The new drinks will roll out first in Italy on Wednesday, the coffee chain said in a— a cafe latte, an ice shaken espresso, and a cold brew will be available at regular Starbucks stores in Italy, said the chain.
These beverages are expected to be available in the US this Spring, starting with outlets in Southern California. The Japanese, Middle Eastern, and UK markets will get them later this year. Customers in certain markets can also ask for a spoonful of olive oil to be added to beverages such as espressos and tea lattes.
The new creations came about after Howard Schultz, the interim CEO of Starbucks, was inspired by the Mediterranean custom of drinking a spoonful of olive oil each day during his travels in Sicily last year. Before long, he started taking olive oil alongside his morning coffee, and"soon he had the idea of trying the two together," Starbucks said
