Starbucks VIA™ Ready Brew
This is not instant coffee as you know it. This is rich, flavorful Starbucks® coffee in an instant.
Starbucks has found a way to offer a truly great cup of coffee that you can prepare by just adding water. We believe other instant coffees taste flat and lifeless. Starbucks VIA™ Ready Brew is different - it's full-bodied and flavorful, just like the Starbucks® coffee you know and love.
It's made with the highest-quality, ethically sourced 100% arabica beans. The magic is in a proprietary process that we spent years perfecting. We microgrind the beans in a way that preserves all of their essential oils and flavors. No other coffee company takes this step, and it makes all the difference.
But don't take our word for it. Try Starbucks VIA™ for yourself.
We think it tastes just as good as any cup of freshly brewed Starbucks® coffee. And we bet you'll agree. Visit a participating Starbucks store October 2-5 to take the Starbucks VIA™ Taste Challenge. Let us know if you can taste the difference and receive a free tall brewed coffee for your time.*
Starbucks VIA™ Ready Brew is available nationwide starting September 29.
*Good on your next visit with offer card. Only at participating U.S. locations.
