[nfbwatlk] Braille and Large Print Beverage Brochures atStarbucks

[Mike Sivill]

I did the exact same thing yesterday as well. Perhaps these accessible menus
haven't gotten to all the stores yet or something. Or they are working too
fast to think about it. It was really crowded when I was in there.

 Just yesterday I was at Starbucks and requested they read me the menu of
holiday drinks as I was blind and no one offered me the brochure.  Hmmm> I
will say they were very gracious in telling me about them.  Next I will ask.
I recommend the "ginger snap" It has bits of candied ginger that sink to the
bottom.  It is made with ginger syrup, so it is not low cal or carb
friendly, but I did splurge on their very smallest sized cup.

Braille and Large Print Beverage
Brochures at Starbucks

Did you know that there are over 87,000 beverage combinations at 
Starbucks? To help you order, Starbucks has made their popular 
brochure, "Make It Your Drink," available in both Braille and Large 
Print. Ask your barista for it the next time you visit your local Starbucks.

The input from customers, partners (employees), and disability 
organizations helped guide this effort. Starbucks would specifically 
like to thank the American Council of the Blind, the American 
Association of the Deaf-Blind and the Seattle Lighthouse for their 
input. Thank you also to Easy to Read Documents for producing the 
Braille and large print
