Hot Tea, High Stakes: California Man Wins $50 Million Lawsuit Against Starbucks

A California delivery driver, Michael Garcia, has been awarded $50 million in a lawsuit against Starbucks after suffering severe burns from a spilled tea. The incident occurred in February 2020 at a drive-through, where a venti-sized tea fell onto Garcia's lap, causing permanent and life-altering injuries.

Garcia's legal team argued that the scalding-hot tea was not securely placed in a takeout tray by a Starbucks employee, leading to the accident. The Los Angeles County jury sided with Garcia, holding Starbucks accountable for negligence. Garcia underwent multiple medical procedures, including skin grafts, due to the burns.

Starbucks has expressed sympathy for Garcia but plans to appeal the decision, calling the damages excessive. This case echoes past high-profile lawsuits involving hot beverages, such as the famous McDonald's coffee case in the 1990s.

The verdict serves as a reminder of the importance of safety standards in handling hot drinks, both for businesses and consumers.
