The tweet from @StarbucksIE said: ‘Happy hour is on! Show us what makes you proud to be British for a chance to win. Don’t forget to tag #MyFrappucino.’
The apology reads: ‘We erroneously posted to our Irish Twitter page meaning to post to the UK only. Customers in Ireland: We’re sorry.’
The comment received criticism from its followers, and comes after a similar faux pas when pop star will.i.am wished Queen Elizabeth II a ‘happy birthday’ during the Diamond Jubilee celebrations.
