    I don’t think that this will mean that all non-dairy creamers would have to be given for free.

    It would only mean that one non-dairy creamer would be. Oat, almond, soy milk are probably the more expensive types of non-dairy creamers.

      They already offer a dairy free option: black coffee. I’m not sure that would solve the problem.

        Brewed coffee and espresso are not the same beverage and cannot be substituted for one another.

        Most of Starbucks drinks are primarily milk with 2-3 espresso shots. By weight, they sell milk with coffee flavor.

          I used to drink brewed coffee, now I effectively drink Americanos (at home I use a areopress). And anyone who stays at my place, that’s what they’re getting, and I’ve never had a complaint. In fact it’s usually compliments. So I’m not sure I agree.

          However, I think I wasn’t clear about my point. I’m just saying they already provide a non dairy alternative so providing a single one for free either doesn’t meet the desires of this lawsuit, or the lawsuit will fail because it already exists.

          I absolutely agree that Starbucks is mostly milk. So maybe you’re right and that will make the difference.
