Starbucks Vietnam ends 'no water' option for Refresher drinks

Starbucks Vietnam announced that, effective 1 August, the popular "no water" customization will no longer be offered for its Refresher beverage line. The change does not alter the standard recipes; customers can still order drinks such as the viral grapefruit tea, but the specific request to omit added water will be unavailable.

The company said the adjustment is a routine update to its menu and service procedures and did not provide a detailed reason. Fans expressed concern that the modification, which had become a widely shared custom on social media, would be lost, while Starbucks confirmed that other customization options remain unchanged.
