According to blogger Starbucks Melody, coconut milk will join the less-sexy soy milk as an option for dairy-free and vegan drinkers: Starbucks locations are already receiving their green boxes of "Sumatra coconut milk beverage with coconut water from concentrate" for employees to experiment with.ĭuring Starbucks's initial test run, a post on its official blog noted that customers had been requesting a non-soy alternative for some time, and that "the rich creaminess of Coconut Milk is the best complement to our hot, iced and Frappuccino® beverages with none of the allergens of almond milk." (Nut-allergy concerns, however, have not prevented Dunkin' Donuts from offering almond milk in its stores.) Redditors/Starbucks fanatics in Portland, OR - one of the test markets - confirmed that customers were clamoring for the stuff, with one reporting that their suburban store was going through " three or four cartons" of coconut milk per day. After a test run hit select markets back in fall 2014, Starbucks confirmed today it will roll out coconut milk as a non-dairy milk alternative in all of its locations, starting in mid-February.
