Starbucks VIA™ Ready Brew
If you are looking for a “quick” cup of coffee throughout your day the new Starbucks VIA™ Ready Brew is worth trying out. I’ve been a little critical lately of how my local Starbucks handle drive-thru traffic vs. the customers in their store… The new offering from Starbucks means I don’t have to go inside the store as often!
Ready Brew is made with Instant & “micro ground” coffee and available in two flavors (Colombian & Italian Roast). All you need is 8oz of hot (or cold) water & you’re in business.
How does it taste? Pretty darn good! I’ve had instant coffee before and it’s always been disappointing, but it was better than nothing. Now with Ready Brew I can enjoy my favorite caffeinated beverage while traveling and just as easily at home (if I have the time I’ll still grind my own beans and use my french press). 
Starbucks VIA™ Ready Brew is available at all Starbucks store locations now and online at the end of October. 12-8oz servings will cost you $9.95.
