Starbucks' black aprons have a special meaning most people don't realise

With winter hot on our heels, high street coffee giant Starbucks is gearing itself up for the busiest time of the year. Pumpkin spice lattes are back, and soon the Christmas menu will be too, so you can get your hands on the likes of toffee nut lattes and velvety hot chocolate.

According to the Mirror, most employees will wear green aprons, which can be embellished according to their various accomplishments or requirements.
