Starbucks Opens Its 1st Evolution Fresh Store – Washington State

Sunday, April 1st, 2012

Starbucks has opened their first Evolution Fresh store in Washington State after acquiring the brand a few months ago. Evolution Fresh plans to build on its product line-up with new seasonal and core juices that are never heated through high pressure processing.
“Evolution Fresh™ store introduces customers to a unique, premium juice and food experience. Combining fresh, natural ingredients with culinary and globally-inspired recipes, each order is personalized and handcrafted to create delicious offerings – including wraps, salads, soups and more. Evolution Fresh is also offering vegetarian and vegan offerings – to help customers get the most out of life, whether in-store or on-the-go”.
“After cold pressing and squeezing the juice, an innovative technology called High Pressure Processing (HPP) is used to retain more of the flavors, vitamins and nutrients of raw fruits and vegetables”. Whatever, that means?
