Athens coffee shop faces backlash over new butterbeer drink
An Athens coffeehouse that faced criticism for the name of a late-October latte special now is facing criticism for taking the drink off its menu. Donkey Coffee, four blocks off the campus of Ohio University, introduced its Butter Beer Latte on Oct. 26 as a take on a beverage popular that's popular with characters in the "Harry Potter" series of books and movies. A day later, the 25-year-old business issued an apology on its social media pages after customers and online commenters raised concern about "Harry Potter" author JK Rowling's long history of opposition to transgender rights . Donkey Coffee said it was discontinuing the latte until it could settle on a new name for the drink. View this post on Instagram "We especially apologize to the trans community," the coffee shop posted . "It was never our intention to offend — thanks for pointing this out to us." That decision sparked anger with a different point of view. Critics of the initial critics said people were being too sensitive and the shop was caving to pressure. "Unfollowing and not buying your coffee. ... Pandering leaves a bitter taste in my mouth," one person said on the store's Instagram page.
