Tweet A CoffeeWith the success of its “Tweet-a-Coffee” in the US, Starbucks Canada and Twitter Canada have teamed up to bring the program to the great White North aiming at “eGifting” consumers across Canada.   This is the first gifting program of its kind in Canada and the newest way for Canadians to instantly share the gift of Starbucks in 140 characters or less.

“Starbucks is a gathering place that creates moments of connection between people every day. Tweet-a-coffee is a brand new way for our customers to connect with friends and followers and share the gift of Starbucks instantly,” says Richard Burjaw , Vice-President Starbucks Coffee Canada.  “Whether it’s to say #thank you, #congratulations or simply #justbecause we’re thrilled to enable the ability for customers to spread some kindness.”
