Starbucks Adds 7 More Beverages Available for 'To-Go Bag' Orders
Starbucks Korea announced on the 24th that it will add 7 new beverages, including Iced Grapefruit Honey Black Tea, to the drinks available for order with the 'To go bag'. This increases the total number of To go bag beverages from the existing 5 to 12.
The To go bag is a product that contains 6 or 8 tall-sized drinks made in-store in a special container, allowing customers to pour and drink as much as they want. Since the drinks are contained in a dedicated container, it is highly portable and convenient for outdoor activities such as events, ceremonies, camping, and picnics.
According to Starbucks, sales of To go bags last month increased nearly fourfold compared to the same period last year, and sales from August 1 to August 24 this year were about five times higher than the same period last year.
