I seriously hope this is a joke, because it really is absurd, though I wouldn’t put it past the folks at Starbucks by any means.
Instead of spending $5 of a terrible tasting coffee to get your morning caffeine buzz Starbucks is hoping to offer a new product to get you high. Now you can pull this little lovely out of your pocket and take a hit that “Delivers a grande sized burst of caffeine with each blast while making your breath minty fresh,†accordingly to Tom Sherman, at least. If all goes well you’ll be able to get that much needed caffeine high without having to drink the filth that starbucks manages to pass off as coffee.
This is certainly an interesting idea, and I doubt it’s real or, if it is, will be passed or become popular at all, but just look at it. I mean, really now, who thinks of this shit? Isn’t having thousands of locations across North American and brining in millions, if not billions of dollars every year through coffee sales not enough? How long until we start seeing the Starbucks caffeine patch in all the drug stores for those recovering caffeine adicts.
