In a move that is sure to make regular Starbucks visitors very happy, the national coffee chain has decided to expand the availability of its non-dairy beverages. As of March 2021, Starbucks is offering Oatly, along with new non-dairy beverages to its menu nationwide.

New non-dairy drink options include the Iced Chocolate Almondmilk Shaken Espresso and the Iced Brown Sugar Oatmilk Shaken Espresso. They shared the news of adding Oatly to the menu nationwide on Instagram, saying, “So we heard you wanted oatmilk… Oatly is available at Starbucks starting March 2—add it to all of your favorite drinks!”

Customers who are looking to turn regular beverages into dairy-free versions can also do so easily since Starbucks now has soy milk, coconut milk, oat milk, and almond milk on its menus.

Havre Global AB is Oatly’s parent company and they have already confidentially filed for their initial public offering.

Starbucks is preparing to roll out a wide range of other beverages this spring, so the fun is not stopping here. We are especially enthused about the prospect of the iced pineapple matcha drink. That’s not all, either. Longtime observers are thrilled about the Pink Drink, a strawberry açaí beverage. It’s made with coconut milk, so now you won’t need to spell out your desires to the barista.

The Starbucks secret menu options might be great but we are glad to see more stuff being added to the everyday menu. With more people opting for plant-based options, it’s great to see a company like Starbucks catering to those needs.

This is the best news of the day for anyone who was looking for an extra reason to go to Starbucks. Let’s be real here, there are so many places that are shut down at the moment and Starbucks drive-thru runs have become a form of therapy. We are going to be front and center, ready to take home one of these new beverages as soon as possible!
