Starbucks wants you to give olive oil coffee a shot. Really.
The coffee chain is rolling out a new line of beverages made with extra virgin olive oil. To be clear, the drinks are not simply flavored with olive oil, nor do they have just a hint of it.

Three olive oil beverages are available for sale at Starbucks cafes in Italy starting this week.
“My Starbucks journey will come full circle when I return to Milan later this month to introduce something much bigger than any new promotion or beverage,” Schultz said during a February analyst call, teasing the new line.
