“Core to the Starbucks Experience is the ability to customize your beverage to make it yours. By removing the extra charge for non-dairy milks we’re embracing all the ways our customers enjoy their Starbucks,” said Brian Niccol, Starbucks chairman and chief executive officer.

Substituting non-dairy milk – whether its soymilk, oatmilk, almondmilk or coconutmilk – in a handcrafted beverage is the second most requested customization from Starbucks customers, behind adding a shot of espresso. When this change goes into effect on November 7, almost half of Starbucks current customers in the U.S. who pay to modify their beverage at company-operated stores will see a price reduction of more than 10%.

“I made a commitment that we’d get back to Starbucks, focusing on what has always set Starbucks apart – a welcoming coffeehouse where people gather and we serve the finest coffee handcrafted by our skilled baristas,” continued Niccol. “This is just one of many changes we’ll make to ensure a visit to Starbucks is worth it every time.”
