The Seattle based company is coming out full time with a new 31oz size for their cold drinks this year after select market studies last year were deemed successful.
Unfortunately for us hot-coffee fanatics, this new size is ONLY for their iced coffees and teas. This larger than life size will be available in all Starbucks locations by May 3rd.
Like cold tea but don't feel like paying the additional $.50 for the 31 oz? Head to the nearest McDonalds to take advantage of their cold, tasty 32 oz Sweet Tea for ONLY $1.00.
Another side note: Most Mom-And-Pop coffee shops already have the 32oz for cold drinks. If you really want a "warm" version of this, they CAN heat these drinks up to around 130 to 140 degrees... Only 25 degrees cooler than the HOT drinks.
For those of you in Newberg, OR: Placed I have successfully gotten a 32 oz "warm" drink: Sip City and Speedy Espresso. I also enjoy these more than Starbucks as they generally do not have the "burnt" flavor that Starbucks is associated with.
