Important to Know

The beans used for this coffee make it so special because they are from Latin America and 100% Arabica.

The only spicy taste will not be liked by anyone….right?, that’s why Starbucks makes it a little sweety which gives a mouthful taste of chocolate.

Texture

Its texture is super smooth and each sip flows through your throat giving you a buttery touch of softness.

Because of its texture, it’s a medium acidic drink with lightweight, moreover, it is also a clean finish drink with a pleasant taste instead of a bitter and harsh one at the end.

You can order this in Verismo pods, k-cups pods, or instant coffee packs in different stores.

Does Starbucks Use the Same Roasting Method For This Drink?

No! The roasting style is the main unique thing about this drink, being a blonde roast coffee its roasting is quite different from all other drinks offered at Starbucks. The beans are usually roasted either medium or dark, but for this, it’s compulsory to roast the beans for a very short period and to a lighter range.

In this way, a lot of caffeine and other flavors lock into the beans and easily seep into the water when they get brewed. Its roasting is also a reason for its smooth and soft texture that enhances the delicate flavor. 

Does Starbucks Has Discontinued the Veranda Blend Coffee?

NO! Starbucks is not gonna discontinue it completely as people love it so much, but it is true that some of its versions are banned in some places. This initiative was taken in 2019 to discontinue the availability of the Vernada blend coffee in the store in brewed version.

Best News: The amazing part is you can order it in ground beans and whole bean versions at stores freely.

But the bad news is not limited to the unavailability of brewed versions as Starbucks also discontinued its availability in Verismo Pods in 2020 on 31 December.

  • The other option is to buy instant coffee packs or K-cup pods, but the point is each change will alter the brewing method.

Note: You can easily buy these from the store and online at Amazon or Starbucks’ official app.

  • Then it’s time to select a brewing method, choose according to your selected bean format.
  • You can either use the pour-over cone, drip coffee maker, Keurig machine, or a French press.

Suggestion: Prefer the French press, no matter its a traditional matter but for me it works great to extract all the flavors, the other option I like the most is the drip coffee maker.

  • Then add the beans to the selected brewing system and wait until it gets brewed.
  • As soon as it gets finished, the veranda blend coffee is ready and now you can enjoy it.
