Meet Oleato: Starbucks' new slick 'game-changing platform'

Olive oil and coffee? It's "alchemy," noted legendary Starbucks (NASDAQ:SBUX) leader Howard Schultz, before the company unveiled its new game-changing platform.
The new drink line, called Oleato, will feature olive oil infused lattes and iced espressos, as well as "golden foam" that sits atop cold brews. It'll make beverages "richer" and "luxurious," according to Starbucks (SBUX), as the product launches in two dozen Italian locations on Wednesday (with a rollout planned for Southern California later this spring).
Oleato will also be a good-bye toast of sorts for Schultz, whose third round as CEO of the coffee giant comes to an end in April. Check out what SA contributor Alex Ponte has to say about Starbucks' (SBUX) strategic initiatives and valuation.
