I wouldn’t credit Starbucks with that, I was addicted to espresso from coffee stands long before my hometown ever got a Starbucks. Starbucks maybe gets credit for hooking a segment of population on double caf skinny unicorn frappes. I hit Starbucks way too much now because food and convenience (w/app + drive thru).

I would. Espresso drinks were a "yuppie" drink before Starbucks (80's early 90's). But Starbucks expanded the market so that people who were drinking Folgers at home now drink espresso based drinks.
