When was the last [music] time we went

to Starbucks? Because you may have

noticed these colorful additions to the

menu like [music] a blue coconut energy

refresher or a butterfly drink. This is

actually what's driving same source

sales growth at [music] Starbucks. In

the last quarter, not only did these

innovations really drive same source

sales growth, but [music] it also drove

more people in the doors. And year to

date, Starbucks stock is actually

[music] up more than 25%.

But with all these latest additions to

the menu, I asked Starbucks CEO Brian

Nickel, "How do you exactly ensure that

you're not creating the menu to [music]

be too overly complex for baristas?"

Here's what he said.

>> You know, the reality is what we want to

do is make sure these drinks are built

in a standard way. So that orange cream

cold brew is actually no change in

[music] how you handle cold brew and no

change in how we do our cold foam. It's

just changing the flavor that goes into

the cold foam. We have to have the

discipline that when [music] a drink

doesn't perform consistently, you have

to have the plan to remove it. And then

ultimately, we'll find what is the right

replacement to put back onto [music] the

menu.

>> Have you tried the new drinks on the

menu?

Yeah, I'm going with that
