Who Knew I Preferred Blondes?

, , ,

Lighter-bodied and mellow that gently awakens the senses? Yes, that’s for me. Of course, we’re talking about the latest from Starbucks – the Blonde Roast. The Veranda and Willow Blends are hitting the stores and starting tomorrow until Saturday, Starbucks is letting you sample their blonde, medium, and dark roasts of coffee to see which one you like best.

I wandered in today to get my free coffee and tried out the Veranda Blend. Who knew, but I prefer the blonde roast. Maybe I’m a coffee lightweight or maybe I already had enough coffee during the day, but the Veranda was easy to drink, not bitter or acidic. Its mellow flavor profile is a welcomed addition to give more variety to the basic brew. The rest of my free January will be dedicated to blondes.

How Does Starbucks Do Cyber Monday?

How does a coffee shop participate on a buying day affectionally known as Cyber Monday? By offering a BOGO purchased through your “cyber” device (aka your mobile phone). I’m not sure if every Rewards member automatically gets this promotion, but I’m guessing so.
