Starbucks Best Friend Day is an unofficial holiday celebrated annually on the first Tuesday after Valentine’s Day. The day is a way to show appreciation for friends and loved ones, and Starbucks often offers special promotions and discounts on drinks and food.
The holiday was first started in 2015 by a Starbucks barista named Michelle Francis. Francis wanted to create a day where people could celebrate their friends and show them how much they care. The holiday has since been adopted by Starbucks stores across the country, and it has become a popular way to celebrate friendship.
