Starbucks Sued for False Advertising in Mango Refreshers

Starbucks is facing a lawsuit alleging that its popular "refreshers" drinks, such as Mango Dragonfruit and Strawberry Açaí, do not contain the fruits in their names, misleading customers into paying a premium price for the drinks. The class action lawsuit argues that Starbucks has violated consumer protection laws by falsely advertising the ingredients. A judge denied Starbucks' request to dismiss the case, stating that a significant portion of the public could be misled by the drink names. However, two claims were dismissed from the lawsuit. Starbucks denies the allegations and looks forward to defending itself. This is the latest in a series of lawsuits against fast food chains over misleading advertising practices.
