Starbucks Coffee Break, March 15th

by Nicole Weston, Posted Mar 9th 2006 @ 8:14AM

On Wednesday, March 15th, Starbucks will host a nation-wide coffee break. At stores across America, from 10am to noon, Starbucks baristas will be giving out free tall cups of freshly brewed coffee. There will also be coffee-experts on hand to answer questions about the coffee itself or the brewing process, as well as any questions about brewing at home or the specialty drinks on the menu. For reference, the "tall" cup size is 12-ounces and the drink served will be black coffee, not lattes, though the condiment bar will be available for those who take cream and sugar.

Now if Dunkin Doughnuts had free doughnut day on the same time as free coffee day...

Let's go for a drink instead.

considering how warm it has been today, and how warm the predictions are for the next week, an iced coffee would be sooooo much more preferable.
