Starbucks Opens First-Ever Ski-Thru Coffee Shop

Need further proof that Starbucks coffee shops are literally everywhere? Then look no further than this ski-thru Starbucks located atop a mountain. (For real!)

We’ve already written about 10 of the wackiest drive-thrus in America, but this Starbucks located at the Squaw Valley Ski Resort could have easily made the list.

This one-of-a-kind coffee shop was built into the slopes at an elevation of 8,000 feet, allowing resort-goers to purchase a cup of Joe without ever having to remove their skis or snowboards. Now that’s convenience!

According to reports, the idea for a ski-thru Starbucks was inspired by base jumper JT Homes, who’s been known to ski while drinking coffee at the same time. We have a hard enough time driving with the stuff as it is.
