Starbucks Corp. will discontinue its lineup of olive oil drinks as the company moves to tame its sprawling menu.

Oleato products will be permanently removed from the core menu beginning Nov. 7 when the company launches its holiday drinks, according to a memo seen by Bloomberg News. In the message, the coffee chain said it’s “saying goodbye to Starbucks Oleato beverages and toffee nut syrup.”
