Another Friday, another Coffee News Roundup. The good thing about this series is that, even when I'm not feeling particularly inspired, there's always some new story about Starbucks doing a thing, a new cannabis coffee, or JAB trying to buy Lard Lad Donuts and it keeps
Coffee News Roundup
Welcome to another edition of the Coffee News Roundup. Fair warning: this week's update may devolve into facetiousness and snark by the end, when the subject of banning plastic straws comes up. I'll do my best to keep it sensible, but no promises. So with that

Coffee News Roundup
A quick roundup for you this time, as I'm heading up north to Traverse City for a weekend of lighthouses, lakes and lattes. You know, the three L's. Let's get to it, shall we? Nestle pays $7.2 billion to sell coffee with Starbucks
