Today, Starbucks announces the introduction of three new plant-based food choices at 57 select stores in Greater Jakarta and Bali, as well as almondmilk at all stores across Indonesia. The expansion of plant-based menu items in Indonesia will offer more choices to accommodate the evolving preferences and lifestyles of customers, and provide them with more ways to customize their Starbucks Experience. The new food choices include the Plant-Based Sloppy Joe Sandwich, Plant-Based Wellington Pocket and Plant-Based Patty Focaccia Bread.

The new line-up in Indonesia joins a growing number of plant-based menu items offered to Starbucks’ customers in Asia Pacific region and around the world. Starbucks remains committed to expanding plant-based food and beverage offerings in locally-relevant ways, as environmentally friendly menu items contribute to Starbucks global aspiration to be a resource-positive company.

“Starbucks offers customers many delicious food and beverage choices to enjoy throughout the day,” said Liryawati, Chief Marketing Officer, PT Sari Coffee Indonesia. “The new food menu and almondmilk beverage options offer everything customers love about their Starbucks favorites, made using plant-based ingredients. We are excited to be now providing the plant-based almondmilk alternative to dairy and soy milk, offering customers new ways to customize and enjoy their favourite Starbucks.”

Last September, Starbucks introduced a seasonal plant-based handcrafted beverage, the Almondmilk Hazelnut Latte to Indonesian customers, which quickly became a customer favorite. Almondmilk is the perfect complement to Starbucks hot, iced and Frappuccino® beverages with delicate nutty sweetness aftertaste.

The plant-based menu is available for customers to order at Starbucks® stores or using the Starbucks Delivers service.

Today, Starbucks announces the introduction of new plant-based food and beverage options in select markets across Asia. Starting in September, Starbucks is adding two new seasonal plant-based handcrafted beverages, the Oatmilk Cocoa Macchiato and Almondmilk Hazelnut Latte to store menus in 8 markets, as well as plant-based food choices at stores in Hong Kong, New Zealand, Singapore, Taiwan, and Thailand. New plant-based milk options will remain available as part of core menu offerings in around 7 markets across Asia following the seasonal promotion. The new lineup in Asia joins a <a href="https://stories.starbucks.com/asia/stories/2020/starbucks-expands-plant-based-food-menu-in-singapore/">growing number of plant-based menu items</a> offered to Starbucks customers <a href="https://stories.starbucks.com/stories/2020/plant-based-menu-innovation-at-starbucks/">around the world</a>. As customer demand for plant-based choices increases, Starbucks remains committed to expanding plant-based food and beverage offerings in locally-relevant ways, as environmentally friendly menu items contribute to Starbucks <a href="https://stories.starbucks.ca/en/stories/2020/kevin-johnson-letter-sustainability/">global aspiration to be a resource-positive company</a>. "We're thrilled to offer our customers more ways to personalize their Starbucks Experience and enjoy plant-based choices at Starbucks," said Sara Trilling, president, Starbucks Asia Pacific. "This menu expansion is designed to offer our customers the same flavors and handcrafted service they know and love from Starbucks, in a new way. We're excited to continue our journey toward becoming resource positive together with our customers in Asia."

According to Euromonitor, a global market intelligence company that tracks customer trends, the Asia Pacific region stands out as the largest region for plant-based milk options due to well established traditions in local food culture.

"A new wave of plant-based food and beverage products are making inroads in Asia and will continue to develop over the next few years, driven by customer interest in healthier lifestyles and eco-conscious behaviors,” said Maria Mascaraque, Industry Manager at Euromonitor. “Plant-based options such as soy are strongly ingrained in Asian culture, meaning innovation is key to meeting the taste preferences of consumers seeking out new flavors and modern takes on traditional diets.”
