💜 Purple Parade 2024 💜  We are excited to participate in this year’s Purple Parade, Singapore’s largest initiative supporting the inclusion and celebration of individuals with disabilities. With an incredible turnout of 15,000 visitors, this event emphasizes the importance of fostering an inclusive environment where everyone can thrive - a mission that aligns closely with Starbucks’ commitment to diversity and inclusion. ✨ Our partners and their family members demonstrated their enthusiasm and creativity, donning purple and embracing the theme “Aqua Guardians: Tides of Sustainability”. 💚 They crafted props from recycled materials (including capes and siren crowns made from items like milk carton boxes, bottle caps, and whole bean coffee bags! ☕) and proudly marched in the contingent to show solidarity and celebrate persons with disabilities.   We’re grateful to be part of this meaningful movement and look forward to strengthening connections within the community. A big thank you to everyone who joined us in this celebration. Together, we can make a difference! 🎉 #StarbucksSingapore #PurpleParade2024 #SupportInclusion #CelebrateAbilities

 ☕️🌍 Happy International Coffee Day! 🌍☕ Today, we’re celebrating our love for coffee and the incredible journey it takes from bean to cup! To mark this special occasion, our partners hosted exciting coffee tasting sessions at various stores last week, guiding our customers through a delightful exploration of flavors and the art of brewing. At our Century Square and Oasis Terrace outlets, customers enjoyed a tasting of our Limited Time Offering (LTO) Anniversary blend, expertly crafted using the pour-over method. They also discovered what makes this coffee so unique! Meanwhile, at Compass One, our partners treated customers to a tasting with the Chemex, a special coffee maker that filters out impurities, resulting in a smooth cup with a bright flavor profile. This delightful brew was perfectly complemented by scrumptious chocolate croissants, enhancing the overall tasting experience!  🥐 A massive thank you to everyone who joined the fun! ✨ Let’s keep celebrating our shared love for coffee every day. Here’s to more delightful brews ahead! 💚  #StarbucksSingapore #InternationalCoffeeDay #CoffeeTasting

A Big Congratulations to Our Champions! 🏆   Our very first Starbucks Futsal Championship has wrapped up, and what an amazing journey it’s been! Partners from every district and the Support Centre came together, not just to compete, but to connect, have fun, and show the true spirit of teamwork. After some incredible matches, we’re proud to crown our first-ever champions! 🎉   This event was about so much more than the game—it was about the friendships formed, the teamwork displayed, and the memories created.

Big Congratulations to Our Champions! 🏆🎉   We couldn’t be prouder to share that our amazing partners, Rachel & Mok, have won the Champion and 1st Runner-up titles respectively at the National DaVinci Gourmet Barista Craft Championship 2024! Their creativity, passion, and love for coffee came to life in every cup crafted. Both their signature drinks were nothing short of masterpieces: · Gentleman’s Dusk by Rachel : A refreshing, layered sunset in a cup, inspired by the cool and mysterious male leads from Rachel's favorite "manhwa" (Korean comics). · Sailor's brew by Mok: inspired by a Sailor's favourite drink Navy Rum a symbol of his adventures and the freedom of the ocean. A bold and spicy blend of Caribbean Flavors, balanced by a deep espresso and creamy coconut finish. “The entire experience was unforgettable! The adrenaline, the support from Mok and my colleagues all pushed me to bring my best to the competition. I like to think that every drink tells a story – one that is crafted with passion, brewed to bring a little joy and creativity to every sip!” Rachel quips.   This victory is a testament to the craft and passion that our partners bring to Starbucks every day. Rachel & Mok, your dedication has inspired us all, and we’re beyond excited to celebrate this incredible achievement with the both of you. 🙌   Please join us in congratulating them! 👏   #StarbucksSingapore #DaVinciGourmetChallenge #CoffeeCraft #ProudToBeAPartner #Teamwork
