Starbucks Is Releasing This Major Celeb Collaboration Today

After weeks of speculation and internet buzz, Starbucks confirmed today that it is now selling a Taylor Swift beverage.

The pop star's alleged favorite order—a Grande Caramel Nonfat Latte—is now on the chain's menu, and all you need to do is ask for "Taylor's latte" or "Taylor's version."

The speculation about a partnership between Swift and Starbucks began in late October when the coffe giant commented on a TikTok video posted by Swift. In the video, the songstress shares a checklist of her favorite things about the fall season and gives a shoutout to Starbucks' famous Pumpkin Spice Lattes.

Not long after Swift posted the video, Starbucks returned the compliment in the comments, writing (in all caps): "TAYLOR SAID IT'S FALL." The comment alone was enough to get fans wondering whether the two megabrands were teaming up. Starbucks then doubled down on the hint-dropping with a TikTok video of its own, playing off of Swift's earlier post.

The mystery reached a high point early last week, with another cryptic social media post from Starbucks. "It's Red Season," the coffee chain tweeted Monday morning. The tweet might have been a nod to Starbucks' beloved line of red, holiday-themed cups, which rolled out the week prior. To Swift fans, however, "red season" was a direct reference to Swift's forthcoming album, Red (Taylor's Version), a re-recording of her 2012 album Red.

The tweet blew up, with 99 thousand likes and 2,500 comments (many of which, amazingly, Starbucks seems to have replied to). Convinced of a partnership between Swift and Starbucks, fans asked the coffee chain for details—with Starbucks neither confirming nor denying the rumors, but all the while making playful references to popular Taylor Swift songs.

The same day as the Starbucks tweet, Taylor Swift superfan account Swift Society joined the conversation, claiming to have viewed a "weekly [Starbucks] newsletter" with details about the collaboration. And the fan account was right when it predicted the team-up is kicking off November 12, alongside Swift's new album.

These 5 Grocery Items Are Cheaper Than Ever Right Now

The grocery industry has been facing major disruptions. The combined effects of the pandemic, climate change, and economic uncertainty over the past couple of years have culminated in a series of supply chain breakdowns. For the consumer, this means supply shortages , shipping delays , and temporary store closures are becoming more commonplace – and all of the added production cost to suppliers is driving up food prices . The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics' Consumer Price Index report for January 2022 was released on Feb. 9, and it tells the story of cost trends for every spending category over the past year. Now the numbers are in, and since January 2021, "food at home" spending has increased 7.4%. Consumers should use this number as a benchmark, Phil Lempert, the consumer behavior analyst and founder behind Supermarket Guru , told Eat This, Not That! "Anything that's substantially less [than the 7.4% increase] is a deal," said Lempert. "When you

When Should I Take Creatine?

Creatine is probably the most well-researched supplement on the market today. Numerous studies have found positive adaptations in strength, power and muscle mass thanks to creatine supplementation—especially when it's combined with resistance training. Although the benefits of creatine are well-known to lifters, the best time to take it isn't common knowledge. Which leads us to some important questions:     Does an optimal time for consuming creatine exist?     If it does, should you take it before or after your workout? According to a new study published in the Journal of Exercise and Nutrition, the timing of creatine ingestion does indeed play a role in getting bigger and stronger. Creatine supplementation before resistance training increases muscular strength and lean muscle mass. Interestingly, taking creatine immediately after lifting weights results in greater muscle growth than taking it immediately before. However, in terms of strength gains, no difference betw
