    Stardrunks?

    Starbucks is currently testing a new product in connection with Jim Bean, a coffee liqeur that is supposed to be available in March.

    It seems that people in the test cities are outraged because they feel that it is luring kids to drink. I think it's kind of silly, but that's just me. It would be one thing if this was sold in the actual Starbucks store, but it will only be sold in liqour stores.

    Here's the link www.stardrunks.com

    Thanks for the great signature Kay!

    Why don't people just focus on watching their kids?

    Teens will drink if they want, no matter what. Also, I love Starbucks coffee! I'm so tired of all the "parents" expecting everyone else to do their job(teachers, police, businesses,etc.) The world is not a babysitter, nor should it have to be.

    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.

    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.

    LOL, I don't think kids need Starbucks to lure them to drink. Peer pressure can do that much more effectively.

    Really.

    Even so, if a teen is going to drink it's not going to be because Starbucks has an alcoholic drink in their name, they already had the intentions of drinking in the first place. It's like saying a kid playing a violent video game caused him to kill someone.

    Like Valerie said, people need to stop thinking that the world is their babysitter.

    LOL same here, I'm not a big drinker but I do like tasting new things. I really want to try it when it comes out. I'm not much for beer though, it tastes yucky.

    I'll toast to that

    Seriously, though, coffee flavored liquor is one of my favorites. Even though I'm not a Starbucks fan (being an employee of a local coffee house) I'll have to keep my eye out for that!
