Starbucks Delivery Through DoorDash Now Available In Las Vegas

What an exciting time to be alive! Las Vegas can now skip the lines at their local Starbucks and have their venti iced white chocolate mocha delivered straight to their door through DoorDash.

The popular food-delivery service and the dominant coffee chain have joined forces, announcing their new partnership on Tuesday, January 31st. DoorDash users who are dependent on their morning cup of joe will now be able to place their favorite Starbucks order straight through the DoorDash app.

Las Vegas is able to utilize this new partnership between companies, as Nevada is one of only a select few states that have access to this service at the current time. However, there is some great news.  The companies are hoping for all Starbucks drinkers and DoorDash lovers across the nation to have access to this extra-convenient combination of services by the end of March 2023. Fingers crossed!

The potential for error during the delivery process could very likely pose some initial issues as the partnership gets its footing. But, it sounds as though Starbucks is thinking one step ahead. According to News 3, "Starbucks has developed packaging solutions to ensure the quality of hot and cold menu items including stickers for beverages to avoid spilling, tamper-evident packaging, and delivery-specific cup holders."

Whether you're in the mood for a delicious drink or just simply one of their tasty cake pops, DoorDash officially has Las Vegas covered. And for those of us that can't get through our day without a coffee in our system, this new partnership between companies will, undoubtedly, be a highly utilized lifesaver.

There are 15,444 Starbucks in the United States. I have never met an adult that has never had something from Starbucks. It's a vibe, let's be honest.

Rounding out the cities in the United States that have the most Starbucks stores are:

I have jumped around Starbucks drinks and for a long time, I was a venti non-fat White Chocolate Mocha no whip 2.5 pumps. Yes, 2.5 pumps. (I know I am extra and because of that added change my husband will never order it for me)

I was that drink for many years until I found out about the Starbucks Secret Menu. They really have one. . They have a lot of secret drinks on there and thanks to Tik Tok I have gotten my hands on a lot of them. They have secret drinks for summer, fall, winter, iced, and hot, they have something for everyone.

One tip I will give you is when you are ordering off of the secret list from this list below you have to give them details. You can't just say "I want a venti Pink Drink" the barista will just get annoyed ad odds are will not make it the correct way. You have to say "I want a venti Strawberry Acai Refresher with fresh strawberries, and coconut milk"

I know that ordering new things from Starbucks is stressful but practice before you get up to the window I promise it will pay off for you in the end. Also... when ordering off of the Secret Menu and the barista is nice... throw them a little tip for taking good care of you. I am sure learning 4,000 drinks and making them to perfection every time can't be easy!

ENJOY!

I think it's safe to say that coffee is often a saving grace. And Las Vegas coffee shops have definitely helped us recover after a night out.

It's truly the perfect beverage that's available in multiple mediums. Hot, iced, sweet, bitter, frothy or blended; coffee can quench any type of caffeine craving.

Coffee is also a ritual for many of us, often signifying as the gong that starts our day. When we smell the brewing beans and hear the bubbling noise of the carburetor, memories are often pulled from the back of our minds about cornerstone moments in our lives.

Along with the memories and conversations that are associated with the amazing beverage, coffee is also symbol in many cultures. Whether it's the brewing method or the type of beans being used, coffee -- like most things -- vary across the world.

There are four types of coffee beans: Arabica, Robusta, Liberica, and Excelsa. And according to CoffeeAffection.com, Arabica and Robusta are the most common and popular type of beans.

Arabica is known for having a smooth and complex flavor with a distinct lack of bitterness. Robusta, often associated with Vietnamese coffee, has a stronger and bolder flavor with a higher hint of bitterness laced within the coffee's profile.

The other and less common coffee beans, Liberica and Excelsa, have different flavor notes and are grown in Africa and Asia.

According to CoffeeAffection, Liberica beans "has a controversial and polarizing reputation for wild inconsistency. Those who’ve tried this rare variety either love it or hate it."

Some have described the flavor as nutty, woody and "burnt," with a backbite.

Excelsa beans have qualities that are a mixture of light and dark roast traits. These beans have tart and fruity flavors with a lighter aroma. Yet, these beans still have a depth of flavor.

There's also a science to the coffee brewing process that emphasizes and brings out certain flavors of the beans, which you can read more about here.
